Electric vehicle market in Ukraine: results of May 2025

The total volume of the electric vehicle segment as of May 2025 amounted to 9 thousand, which is 7.6% more than in April of this year and 23% more than in May of last year. Despite all the challenges, the electric vehicle segment continues to grow.

IDA analysts predict that this year the growth will continue, since the main driver will be the return of VAT on customs clearance of electric vehicles from 2026, which will lead to an increase in prices for them by at least 20...30%. If we take into account the new US tax policy, which, according to local manufacturers and market experts, primarily poses risks for local American manufacturers, the price increase may become even greater, and it will affect cars from the US, which are very popular in the electric segment.
