- 8.367 electric cars today — estimate based on MUP and SAUVD data
- 7.155 electric and 55.184 hybrid vehicles (MUP, April 2026)
- 1.166 new BEVs from January to September 2026: 3,95 % of new passenger cars, +291 %

Vehicle fleet
In total, just over 3,1 million vehicles are registered. In 2016 there were 123 electric and 88 hybrid vehicles.
The latest official figure is 7.155 electric vehicles (MUP, early April 2026). With new registrations since then, today's estimate is 8.367, and the number on the site grows by itself every six hours.
How the estimate is calculated
- Starting point: 7.155 electric vehicles according to MUP data given to RTS (3 April 2026).
- From April to September 2026, 1.028 new electric passenger cars were registered for the first time (SAUVD: 1.166 in nine months, 138 of them in the first quarter). At the end of September that makes 8.183.
- After that the number grows by the April–September average, 5,62 cars a day, and changes every six hours.
- Imported used cars, light commercial vehicles and deregistered vehicles are not counted. The estimate is corrected when SAUVD or MUP publish new data, and if there are no new data for 120 days, the number stops growing.
Details: other estimates
021.rs gives 7.237 e-cars at the end of 2025, or 0,4 % of 2,1 million passenger cars (3,1 million is the figure for all vehicles).

Public chargers
Most are on motorways and busier petrol stations. Serbia has 3–4 chargers per 100.000 inhabitants, while experts aim for 10–15. Charging at the state-owned motorway chargers (36 installed, 27 working) is free. The others charge mostly per minute and publish prices only in their apps — price index.
Details: how the number has changed
| Date | Number of chargers | Source |
|---|---|---|
| May 2024 | “does not exceed 150” | SAUVD |
| April 2026 | “just over 200”, only 18 of them state-owned | NALED |
| June 2026 | about 230 | Danas / Forbes Srbija |
| September 2026 | 220 | 021.rs |
Electromaps lists 150 stations (60 in Belgrade): it counts stations, not charging points, and the databases are incomplete. Charging is billed per minute because the implementing regulation under Article 210v of the Energy Law has not been adopted.
Subsidies
From 2020 to 2025, over 1,67 billion RSD was allocated to subsidies for more than 3.800 vehicles (including hybrids until 2024). The 2026 budget is 170 million RSD — subsidies 2026.
