Italy June 2013

Behold the new Twingo Cargo, the LCV Twizy and its cargo area

Leaf fights back Edition

Just when it looked that Italy was going to be Zoeland, when in May the french electric car delivered the best performance of the year with 80 sales, in June the Nissan Leaf surged to beat Zoe's performance by selling 83 units, leaving it 37 units behind, with 45 Zoe sales.

This surprising fight, together with solid months of the Twizy (#3 with 32 sales) and the Smart Fortwo ED (#4, with 16 units), enabled this month to beat May as best sales month with 182 units sold and recover the EV share to 0,083%.

These June events allowed for the Nissan Leaf to jump two positions to second place and push the Zoe and Fortwo ED down one position.
