The number of petrol-electric hybrid cars registrations in Italy experienced a strong positive trend over the past 11 years, from just 4,843 units in 2010, to around 434,300 units in 2021.
The same steady trend cannot be noticed when considering diesel-electric cars. Nevertheless, the sales of diesel-electric cars skyrocketed in 2020 and 2021.

By contrast, only four percent of the respondents were going to acquire an electric car, while eight percent were planning on buying a natural gas vehicle.
