The highest number recorded is in Westmeath, but the county still saw a fall of more than 30%.
There has been yet another fall in the number of electric cars in the midlands.

In Offaly the number declined by 33% and in Laois it fell by more than 23%.
3,417 electric cars were registered nationwide in July, down from over 4,000 for the same month in 2023.
