The Romanian auto market is slowing down, with new car registrations dropping by 10.6% in the first nine months of the year. However, electric vehicles are gaining popularity, with registrations increasing by over 45%. Rising fuel costs are prompting drivers to consider electric options, especially from Asian manufacturers. Analysts predict a continued shift from traditional combustion engines to electric and hybrid models, despite an overall market decline. The cost savings for electric vehicle users are significant compared to gasoline and diesel cars, making them an attractive alternative.
