New auto sales in Europe picked up pace increasing 12% Y/Y in April, the strongest pace since Oct-23 led by +20% increases in Spain and Germany.  BEV sales increased 14% Y/Y   to 144K in April, though the level was the 3rd lowest in the past 11 months. BEV penetration dipped M/M to 13.4% and it was largely in line with last year’s 13.1%. PHEV and HEV sales increased 5.9% and 29% respectively. ICE sales grew 4% and penetration increased 2 points M/M to 49%, representing the 3rd highest in the last 6 months.
