The question
To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S6W-39297 by Shirley-Anne Somerville on 24 July 2025, how many new cars registered in Scotland through the Accessible Vehicles and Equipment (AVE) Scheme in 2024 were electric, and what this figure is as a proportion of all new electric cars registered in Scotland in 2024.
The answer
As of year-end 2024 there were 4,648 new Electric Vehicles (EVs) registered in Scotland through the Accessible Vehicles and Equipment (AVE) Scheme. This represents 16.9% of EVs registered in Scotland in 2024, although this figure may not include cars purchased through brokerages based outside of Scotland.We are proud that the Accessible Vehicles and Equipment Scheme is delivering much-needed support for disabled people and contributing towards a Just Transition in Scotland.
