| The Twizy once again was #1 in Italy. But the competition is getting closer... |
Something In The Air Edition
The Italian EV market had its second best month of the year, with 188 units, ending 2013 with the EV share at 0,11%, 0,02 behind last year score.
On the monthly ranking we see something unheard in small-car-loving, pure-electric-friendly Italy: The midsize, plug-in hybrid Volvo V60 Plug-In climbed to #1 with 79 units sold! This is one of the strongest signs that something is changing in Euro-EV-land...
The YTD chart crowned the Renault Twizy for the second year in a row as the Best Selling EV in Italy, but this time sales were a lot less (432 units in '13 vs 1.545 in '12) and the competition were a lot closer.
Second place went for the Nissan Leaf, which sold twice as much as last year (323 vs 146) and finishing the podium we have the Renault Zoe.
PHEV grew from just 3% last year to 12%, thanks to the surprising V60 Plug-In, #5 in the ranking and Best Selling PHEV in '13.
Speaking of PHEV's, 2014 might witness many changes in the top places, not only the V60 will be a regular customer of the #1 spot, but Tesla and the VW boys (e-Up! and e-Golf) could be strong contenders here. And one must always count on the Mitsu Outlander PHEV to surprise everyone...
