Golf GTE Makes a Splash
Some 250 units were sold in the Italian EV Market, ending May with 1.261 sales YTD, it seems that the market will finally beat the 2012 record (2.348 units). The EV Share is at 0,16%, a few steps above last years number (0,12%).
The big news was the thundering arrival of the VW Golf GTE, the 64 units registered right now, making it not only make the most serious candidate for this year Plug-In Hybrid Best Seller title (Sorry Outlander PHEV), but it can be also the first PHEV to reach a podium seat!
In other news...The Renault Zoe recovered the #1, with 50 sales last month (Best performance in two years) while the new #3 is now belonging to the Renault Twizy, a summer favorite in Italy.
Looking at the brands ranking, Renault continues in the lead, with 31%, with Nissan in Second (17%) and BMW in Third, with the german carmaker registering 14% Share, a great improvement over the 4% achieved last year.
