I'll take a look at KBA's FZ28, which has monthly data from 2021 in Excel format. But just noted for later.

Graph showing: Monthly sales of new heavy-duty vehicles: Norway
Here's Norway.
I actually started collating the Chinese data in September. But I still haven't prioritised looking at others. I'll try to squeeze something in soon!
Screenshot from https://www.cvworld.cn/news/Onedata/260115/236006.html with text: However, objectively speaking, behind the “explosive” and “explosive” sales, the sales of 45,300 new energy heavy-duty trucks in December 2025 were not entirely due to the real market demand. This was largely due to the fact that the old operating truck trade-in policy was nearing its end of the year Combined with the early purchase effect brought about by the halving of the purchase tax exemption for new energy vehicles from January 1, 2026. The first commercial vehicle network analysis believes thatThis “abnormal” phenomenon is largely irrational consumption, and it has seriously overdrawn the market demand for new energy heavy-duty trucks in 2026. It is probably difficult to break through the sales level of 45,300 vehicles in December 2025 in the first half of 2026 or even longer.
And that article refers in turn to CVworld, which is the source of the data in my figure. They had this to say:

The trend is definitely up, but the policy change means that December 'stole' sales from 2026. It's a blip in a trend, which is currently probably sitting between 30% and 40%.

Yes, December was a peak month, because of front-loading of purchases by companies. A major trade-in subsidy scheme to get older trucks off the road expired at the end of the year, and higher taxes were expected. Of course, pointing to one month's figures doesn't tell you what the trend is. 1/4
Graph showing: Monthly new passenger car sales/imports: Israel (Source: https://robbieandrew.github.io/carsales/?lang=en&freq=monthly&type=line&sort=bev-share&country=South+Korea%2CIsrael)
Huh, ok, apparently I use trade data through 2022!
Israel is reported from 2020, but before that I use trade data.
For Nepal I've been using official UN trade data, but China still hasn't submitted any data there for 2025. I've recently processed Nepalese Customs data, but there are problems there I still need to resolve. The data are basically messy.
Also some vehicles classified as passenger cars that really aren't: campervans, for example. There was an article on NRK a few weeks back about someone who bought a petrol car because they liked noise, etc.

Here's an example of the type of figure I was able to make previously with the full dataset.
Yes, that datahotell-hosted dataset disappeared over a year ago. I was using that. The new APIs, as far as I can tell, are either paid options or for querying single licence plates one at a time. I'm experimenting with the latter. EVs always get an E* plate, but not always at the frontier.

They do this in India, too. This article from back in 2020.

In the case of Germany, the most important feature of the graph is the fact that (i) there was a very significant change 2018 because of a beetle bark outbreak, and (ii) this wasn't captured immediately because of the rotational sampling method used in forestry statistics.
It's mostly buildings, yes. The three subcategories of "other sectors" are commercial/industrial, residential, ag/forestry/fishing. It includes off-road machinery as well, under each of these.
These are reports about emissions, not temperatures. Or did you mean something else?
I saw that, but haven't looked in detail yet.
Here is the source of the data. As of today, only four developed ("Annex 1") countries have not yet submitted their 2026 editions: Cyprus, Hungary, Russia, and the USA.
USA won't submit this year. The others will probably submit in the next few weeks, but sometimes there are surprises.

You can also see various breakdowns of the most recently submitted inventories, for example here the Energy sector in the UK.

Most developed countries have now submitted the 2026 editions of their formal greenhouse gas emissions inventories to the UNFCCC.
You can check out how their 2026 edition compares to earlier editions on my website: robbieandrew.github.io/country/?cou...

Now implemented.
I'm currently only using Autos + SUV in my analysis. These sorts of classification problems are not uncommon between countries. The important thing is to get the main picture for each country.
I fed the data sheet into Gemini, and it says that about 3/4 of those Utilitario vehicles sold so far this year are most likely for use as passenger vehicles while only 1/4 are most likely used as work vehicles. It seems people buy these because of lower taxes and luxury/comfort.
Yes, I'm aware of this one. It's only annual and only from 2016, but it's a start. Statens Vegvesen does have much more detailed data, but they may not be readily accessible.
Thanks, Luis. This issue again! I'll take a look and see whether I'm excluding utility vehicles.
I have a paid VPN, and it's still working. Annoying that this keeps getting more difficult!
"In the 1970s oil crisis, ... modest models came to be known as “econoboxes” and surged in popularity, particularly among a large and vibrant middle class.
That era is over."
Yes, I do understand. I was just wondering exactly what you needed. I'll add a an extra option for sorting. It's on my to-do list now, but might be a little while.
