News: The Hybrid Car Market in Azerbaijan is Growing Rapidly

The Hybrid Car Market in Azerbaijan is Growing Rapidly
In the first eight months of 2025, Azerbaijan imported 37,183 hybrid cars worth a total of $733 million, reports BAKU.WS citing the State Customs Committee. This represents an increase of 175.3% compared to the same period in 2024 (when 13,504 hybrids were imported worth $387.9 million). At the same time, the average cost of one imported hybrid decreased to $19,715 (≈33,516 AZN), which is 31.4% lower than last year.
Experts attribute this sharp growth to existing VAT and customs exemptions. Cars have become more accessible, and the country’s car fleet is actively being updated. However, these exemptions will expire on January 1, 2026, and prices for new hybrid cars may rise by 15–20%, which will also affect the cost of used vehicles.
