Félix García, director of communication and marketing at ANFAC, explained that “after a good January in sales, February continues with the positive tone and a rise that exceeds 11%. Good news, but we must influence that we estimate that the data is influenced by extra sales that are occurring in the areas affected by the DANA, especially in Valencia, where citizens and companies are replacing vehicles sinstrated by the DANA. According to Ideauto data, in February they have occurred in the affected areas of 4,270 more sales of those that occurred in the same postal districts in February 2024. Without the Dana effect, the market would grow 5.8%. Conventional hybrid vehicles continue to be sales leaders with 44% while diesel and only 6% of buyers choose. For its part, the electricity and plug -in hybrid market share exceeded 14% in February. ”
Raúl Morales, Faconauto Communication Director, indicated that «vehicle enrollments of the month of February maintain their positive trend, a trend we saw in January, but we must point out that we are comparing with February of the year 2024 that was not especially good for enrollments. The strong increase in registration in the Valencian Community is maintained as those affected by the Dana recover their mobility and acquiring vehicles. Logically, this has its positive impact on country statistics.
A strong increase in electrified vehicles enrollments has occurred again, as already happened in January, and this is due to the fact that December many electric vehicles were stopped enrolled to account for this year 2025 and thus contribute to compensate for the middle emissions of CO2 and avoid the foreseeable fines that may fall on the sector if the emissions that the EU are telling us are not fulfilled. The Moves Plan has declined and, despite this, the sales of electrified vehicles have increased, but it is essential that the government publish as soon as possible that renewal that is already announced, retroactive, but until the buyer is published and the sector will not have that certainty ».
Tania Puche, director of Communication at Ganvam stressed that “the market evolves in February positively waiting for an effective stimulus plan to be reactivated to the demand that does not break with this inertia. In fact, the lack of aid has already caused a slowdown of orders and without plans in force the perspective is that the growth of the Canal of individuals is moderated, which right now pulls the registrations. Hence the need to urgently dissipate the uncertainty that the continuous ads without realizing by the Executive are causing. In this line, the reactivation of the MOVES with retroactive character and with the same conditions it had will be positive as a transient solution, but in a context in which not only the rhythm of electrification is insufficient to meet the objectives, but the park does not stop aging, a program of stimulus to the demand that, with centralized management of direct aids exempt from taxation and complying with the principle of technological neutrality, is needed. of all income to efficient mobility ”.
