It looks like Tesla Philippines is closing 2025 as one of the top-selling EV car brands in the country.
You may recall that Tesla officially sold more than 2,000 units as of November 2025, marking its first full year of operations. We now know that the sales figure is actually more than 2,200 units and accounts for 54% of the battery EV market share in the Philippines. These numbers, and Tesla’s position as the 12th best-selling carmaker in the country, have been confirmed by the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines. We can expect the full report next year.
Tesla also recently participated in a 155km fuel economy run organized by the Department of Energy. Out of over 70 combustion-engined, diesel, and electrified vehicles participating, the Model 3 RWD ended up leading the efficiency board with 92.31km/Lge.
