The e-Golf Factor Edition
The e-Golf is already making an impact in Norway, not because of sales (Still demonstration vehicles registered), but because of the effect it's making in its most direct rival: the Nissan Leaf.
In May the japanese hatch registered just 342 units, its worst result of the year and also the first time it was #3 since it arrived in Norway.
The e-Golf will be a tough cookie for the Leaf...

Are Renault Zoes still not being delivered?
ReplyDeleteThe Zoe has been selling in Norway since March, so we have passed the demonstration vehicles phase, the reason for this can be:
DeleteA) Not enough demand;
B) Not enough output to satisfy demand.
In any case, these are bad news for the french manufacturer.
Béatrice foucher says: "customers deliveries will occur In second semester"
