How is Spain Evolving in the Electric Mobility Market?
The electric mobility market is continuously growing. The registration of electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles in Spain increased by 39%, reaching 139,000 units. Regarding charging points, we currently have over 30,000, a 41% growth. Compared to other European countries, Spain ranks sixth in terms of the percentage of vehicle charging points, though countries like the Netherlands, France, and Germany host more than 60% of all charging points in the European Union.
We consulted our colleagues at the PR agency Yucatán in France, who specialize in automotive communication. They explained, “With a significant increase in registrations (+16.2% compared to 2022), 2023 was a year of recovery and stability in France due to the rise in fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicle registrations, especially in the Paris region. The electric car is now entering the mass adoption phase.”
In this booming sector, more and more companies are betting on new technologies and disruptive ideas that generate a positive change in the world. For example, Monta, the Danish startup specializing in electric vehicle charging, offers innovative software solutions to cover all EV charging needs.
Key Communication Strategies in the Sustainable Mobility Sector
Discussing electric mobility is currently very trendy; it’s one of the main communication trends in Spain.

Therefore, it is crucial to monitor daily news and trends in the sector and focus on a communication thread centered on messages that resonate with the audience.
Here are some key communication strategies we recommend for a public relations strategy:
Develop an Engaging Narrative that Educates and Focuses on Innovation
Sustainable mobility often relies on new and emerging technologies. To enter the main conversations in the sector, we recommend focusing your message on the technological aspects and how your product or business model positively impacts society. Additionally, education is essential for changing behaviors and perceptions around sustainable mobility, helping it become the primary mode of transport in the coming years.
