Tesla registrations, a proxy for sales, rose 61.9% in France, 2.2% in Norway and 38.4% in Sweden in September from a year earlier, extending signs of a recovery for the U.S. electric-vehicle maker in Europe. From January through August, Tesla registrations across the European Union, Britain and the European Free Trade Association increased 43.3%, ahead of the broader battery-electric vehicle market’s 38.8% growth. The rebound has been supported by easier year-earlier comparisons, higher fuel prices, government incentives and rising consumer interest in electric vehicles. Registration data from Britain and Germany, Europe’s two largest car markets, due later in the week, will offer a further test of whether the recovery is gaining momentum across the region.
