New battery-electric cars only. Shares are of the month's new BEV registrations; the 'other' row completes each list to the new-car BEV total of the fuel table.

Counts are Statistik Austria's monthly passenger-car (Pkw) registrations by make from its open government data tables, new and used, re-read whole on every refresh; the press workbook's by-make table equals the table in every month, and its fuel table gives the fuel mix. Percentages are shown only when the comparison month has at least 30 registrations.
