In the third quarter of 2026, car registrations in Georgia decreased by 9.4% compared to 40 thousand units last year. However, against this background, imports of electric vehicles doubled, and their rate rose to 11.4% against 4.8% the year before. This dynamic is explained by the increase in customs clearance rates for cars over six years old: electric cars are exempt from duty, which made them more attractive to buyers. Among registered electric cars, 57% are Tesla, Nissan is second, Chevrolet is third. In the same period, the share of hybrids rose to 28.6%, and registration of cars with an internal combustion engine fell by 23%.
