Outlander Is Number One Edition
With 7.783 units sold in May, the European EV market more than doubled sales regarding the same month last year.
Looking at the models ranking, the Outlander PHEV was again the Best Seller of the month, with 1.733 units, finally changing positions with the Nissan Leaf (Just 728 units sold, worst result of the year) and climbing to the YTD leadership for the first time, ending one year of Leaf dominance in The Old Continent.
Great month for the Renault Zoe, 785 units sold (Best month since last October), reaching #2 in May and although it's still #7 YTD, the french hatch is giving signs of recovery.

Good news for the ZOE, I wish I'd see more of them on the road (apart from my own)
ReplyDeleteI think the Zoe will have a second wind, the little car deserves it!
DeleteI love the car, though am yet to drive that one. Hope the same.
DeleteAre there numbers from manufacturers or by countries? How complete are they? I mean, how many models/countries are missing in the stats?
ReplyDeleteI'm mostly thinking about the UK.
How are the i-MiEV triplets still selling?!?
ReplyDeleteNo Way: All major markets are included, with the exception of the UK, it's the big missing piece here, i only have numbers from the Twizy and the Leaf (Sometimes), so the real numbers can be a little different from these.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: Yes, they are, and count them to increase sales, now that they will start to be sold at some 23.000 euros!
Jose, it looks like UK numbers are included as part of Europe. Is that correct? Otherwise there seems to be a "special place" for high sales of the Leaf - other than the UK - where?
ReplyDeleteCan you confirm?
Leaf UK sales are included, just like Norway, where 342 Leafs were sold in May.
