Tesla sales in the UK increase: Model Y dominates in June 2025

Introduction
Have you ever wondered how much the Tesla-Sales UK market really grew in June 2025? With an impressive increase of 12% compared to the previous year, Tesla in Great Britain is once again showing clear strength. Especially the Model Y made a splash with its 4,181 registrations and is not only the leader among electric vehicles but even ranks 3rd among all new registrations. In this article, you'll learn about the factors behind the success, how Model 3 is performing, and what the competition is planning.

Strong Start with the Refreshed Model Y

The Tesla-Sales UK growth owes its boost mainly to the revised Model Y. With 4,181 units registered in June, it was the best-selling Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) and ranked third overall. The latest version scores with increased range and optimized interior - aspects that are particularly crucial for European drivers.

Technical Highlights of the New Model Y

Range: Up to 540 km according to WLTP
Interior: Improved materials and new infotainment
Cargo Space: More storage space due to optimized rear design

These updates have sparked the interest of European customers and led to pre-orders being registered in June.

Model 3 Continues to Hold Its Ground

The Model 3 also remains an important component in the Tesla-Sales UK portfolio. With 3,538 new registrations in June, it ranks 6th among all vehicles. Together with the Model Y, Tesla makes up a significant portion of the growing UK EV market.

Overview of the Overall Market and Competitors

In June 2025, the UK recorded 191,316 new car registrations - the best result since 2019. BEV registrations increased by 39.1% to 47,354 units, covering 24.8% of the overall market. PHEVs increased by 28.8%, while hybrid vehicles slightly declined.

Chinese Competition and Ford on the Rise

BYD: Quadruple increase, 2,498 units in June
Ford : Quadruple growth in the first half of the year, driven by the Mustang Mach-E

Competitive pressure is increasing, and Tesla must maintain its leadership in innovation to continue to convince.

Outlook for the second half

The strong June result is a glimmer of hope after a year-to-date decline of nearly 2%. It will be crucial whether Tesla can maintain the momentum from the end-of-quarter peak and how quickly the Giga Berlin plant can deliver additional capacities. For European buyers, the revised Model Y remains a hot tip - not least thanks to its range and everyday usability.

Conclusion
The Tesla sales UK picked up again in June 2025 thanks to the new Model Y. While Model 3 and Model Y together shape the European EV market, strong competitors are entering the market. For Tesla, the task now is to consolidate the positive trend and accelerate further deliveries from Giga Berlin.
