e) Estimate
Woah, two months more than in half year 2015. Perhaps this year Nissan could reach 20000 Leaf in Japan.
ReplyDeleteIf the trend (~ +50%) continues the year 2016 will be a little below 40k EVs sold :-)
ReplyDeleteI think it's not only because of 30kwh batteries but also some incentives/special offers involved. Will be very interesting to find out.
ReplyDeleteThe Japan Leaf has new features lane departure warning, emergency braking, new colors, new aero style versions and so on.
DeleteNorway numbers are out, BEV stay the same, while PHEV increased from ~200 to ~1500. I think when more BEVs are added next year the BEV will rise again, and it seems because of a lot of new PHEV models this year the PHEV share will hava a great year.
