New Zealand September 2015 (Updated)

Best. Name Plate. Ever.

Race for #2 Edition

With 228 plug-ins sold to date, the explosive growth registered last year in NZ has slowered to much slower rate, up only 16%, with the EV Share at 0.24% vs 0.20% last year.

Looking at the models ranking, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is the undisputed leader, although sales are down from the 159 units of last year to the current 110 sales, were buyers waiting for the restyled model?

Below the japanese SUV, there is an interesting race developing between the BMW i3 and Nissan Leaf, with the japanese trying to recover the runner-up position won last year.


Finally, the Tesla Model S climbs to #5, thanks to 4 sales last month, its best performance here.
