Over the past several months, Ford’s European EV sales have been on the rise, largely corresponding with the expansion of the automaker’s electrified lineup in that region. Despite this, only one Blue Oval EV has made the cut in terms of landing on the list of the top 25 best-selling electric vehicles in Europe, however – the Ford Explorer. Thus far, the Ford Explorer EV has ranked 22nd in February, 19th in March, 15th in April, and 16th in May. That success continued in the month of June, too.
According to new data from JATO Dynamics, the Ford Explorer EV was once again among the best-selling electric vehicles in Europe last month, standing pat in 16th place with 3,797 new registrations – up from 3,223 in May. Year-to-date, the Explorer EV sits in 20th place overall, racking up 18,822 registrations. The perennially best-selling Tesla Model Y is still holding on to the top spot with 68,801 registrations through the first half of the year, with the Volkswagen ID.4 sitting behind it in second with 40,335 units sold.
Meanwhile, Ford ranked 14th among all automotive brands with 35,239 new EV registrations across the first six months of the year, a 223 percent increase versus the first half of 2024. In June alone, Ford accumulated 8,222 new EV registrations in Europe, a 304 percent increase and good enough to land The Blue Oval in the 12th spot overall.
Regardless of powertrain, Ford was the eighth best-selling automaker in Europe across the first half of 2025, racking up 257,337 registrations – six percent more than H1 2024. It fared fare better than the overall new vehicle market in Europe, as registrations dropping 4.4 percent in June to 1,250,868 units, while H1 sales declined by 0.3 percent to 6,844,426 units. Chinese auto brands nearly doubled their market share in Europe year-over-year in H1 2025, however, hitting a new all-time high of  5.1 percent amid a whopping 91 percent sales increase.

Invite the Donald over to a Lions home game and cut a deal to bring the German made Explorer EV to the US. If sales prove to be profitable, then, convert the production facility at Flat Rock to make the EV along with the Mustang.
VERY few want another EV.
