Italy November 2014

These two are running for #1

Entertaining Edition

Another good result for the Italian EV Market, with 175 units sold, and with YTD sales at 1.510 sales, the last year number of 1.446 was surpassed, let's see if 2015 continues with positive numbers and the 2012 record of 2.348 units (At the peak of the Twizy Fever) is finally beaten.

In the YTD ranking, the top places continue continue with a certain degree of uncertainty, with the Nissan Leaf (29 units) defending the leadership from the Renault Twizy, only 5 units behind, while the #3 Smart Fortwo ED still has to keep an eye on the #4 BMW i3 to prevent any last minute surprise.

The race for best PHEV is also interesting, with the Volvo V60 Plug-In stealing the leadership from the Mitsu Outlander PHEV, but everything could change in the last month of the year, so there are lots of points of interest for the Italy's December article. 

The Audi A3 e-Tron made an impressive landing, with 17 units sold, which are already more sales than their cousin VW e-Golf has.

Final mention for the positive numbers from the EV Share, now at 0,118%, fractionally above last month (0,114%) and also slightly better than last year result of 0,110%,
