BMW Takes the Lead Edition
A total of 89 units were registered until now, which is a 35% improvement YoY, with the EV Share rising to 0.22%, a 0.04% improvement over the 0.18% of last year, a number that places Slovenia in the same ball park as Denmark (0.24%).
BMW took the lead from Renault this year, with this year Best Seller, the i3, registering 17 units, and its PHEV relatives helping out to consolidate the German brand lead to 37% share.
Renault lost share and now has only 24% of the market, with the Zoe relegated to Second Place, with 12 units.

Looking elsewhere, the Nissan Leaf is Third, with 10 units, while the Tesla Model S is #6 with 7 deliveries, an improvement over last year, but still behind the 2014 performance, when it was Slovenia's Best Selling EV, with 11 deliveries until July. Nevertheless, looking at the broader picture, 7 units are the same sales level as the Mercedes CLS, so despite the small numbers, Tesla is making a dent in regular ICE sales.
Two interesting facts in the lowest places of the ranking:
- The Citröen C-Zero has 3 registrations this year, its best result in four(!) years, which might indicate increased interest from the local importer;
- Most importantly, the Volkswagen Group has finally realised that Slovenia has potential for EV's and registered a couple of units for demonstration purposes, let's see how this comes along, it would be important to have the Best Selling EV manufacturer in Europe to join the bandwagon.
