Light-Duty ZEV Market Share

2024 Census Metropolitan Area Subdivision Battery Electric Vehicle Share

The following provides data on new zero-emission vehicle market share by census metropolitan area subdivisions for Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver.

Medium- and Heavy-Duty ZEV Market Share

Total Vehicles in Operation

Current number of Zero-Emission Vehicles on Canadian in operation on Canadian roads (as of April 1, 2025). Zero-Emission Vehicles include: Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs), and Fuell Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs).

• Light-duty BEVs = 644,679 (2.4%)
• Light-duty PHEVs = 256,866 (1.0%)
• Light-duty FCEVs = 321 (0.0%)
• MH-Duty BEVs = 7,533 (0.3%)
• MH-Duty FCEVs = 8 (0.0%)

EV-to-Public Charger Ratio: the number of EVs in operation relative to public EV chargers in a given Province/Territory. A lower ration is generally better.

National EV to Public Charger Ratio: 26 EVs: Charger

Government of Canada Public and Private EV Chargers Selected for Funding or Financing

Natural Resources Canada’s (NRCan) funding programs support the deployment of public and private EV chargers where Canadians live, work, travel, and play.

• Zero-Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program (ZEVIP)
• Electric-Vehicle and Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Deployment Initiative (EVAFIDI)

Canada Infrastructure Bank (CIB) financing program invests in large-scale, revenue-generating public EV fast charging projects.

• Charging and Hydrogen Refuelling Infrastructure Initiative (CHRI)

Please visit Government of Canada’s map on Projects funded by the EVAFIDI, ZEVIP and CHRI infrastructure programs.

128 MHDV chargers have been opened and 518 are planned.

Private charging: chargers located on private land and providing charging services to a restricted number of EV drivers determined by the station operator.

Public charging: chargers on public or private land that can be used by any EV driver.

Hydrogen Refuelling Stations

There are 8 publicly available hydrogen refuelling stations in Canada:

• 5 in British Columbia
