Downward trend for car sales

There were 24,844 new private cars registered in Sweden in November, a decrease of 2 percent compared to the same month last year, according to the industry organization Mobility Sweden.

Plug-in hybrids continue to increase their share, while electric cars continue to face headwinds.

"The number of electric cars has decreased by 17 percent so far this year, a trend that is partly reflected in other European countries", writes Mobility Sweden in a press release.

Heavy trucks have had an increase, according to the industry organization. Other vehicle categories are declining.

"All of them have a significant decrease during the year", writes Mobility Sweden.
