Premiums on the Attack Edition
Over 18.000 plug-ins were sold in the first Quarter of the year in the UK, up 30% YoY, down from the three digits growth rates of last year, but still firmly in positive territory and allowing the EV Share to climb to around 1.3%.
Looking at the models ranking, Britain's most popular plug-ins, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and Nissan Leaf, which in 2015 owned two thirds of the market, have lost momentum, if the Mitsubishi SUV still holds the leadership, despite a 24% sales drop, the Leaf not only lost the Second position to the Mercedes C350e, but is now seeing its Third Spot endangered by another Premium offering, the BMW 330e, that has jumped five places in three months, it will be a question of time until the Bimmer reaches the last place of the podium.
It wouldn't be surprising if, in a few months from now, the monthly leadership becomes an exclusive race between the Mercedes and BMW midsize offerings.
Despite dropping one position, the Tesla Model S saw their deliveries grow three fold, all while in the B-Segment/subcompact class, the Renault Zoe continues ahead of the BMW i3, but probably not for long, when the 33kWh version of the German hot hatch arrives, it will probably go on Hyperdrive mode and surpass not only the French product, but also a couple more in front of it.
In the manufacturers ranking, Mitsubishi is still ahead of the pack, with 27% share, but it is followed by the increasingly menacing BMW (17%) and Mercedes (16%).

A final reference for the seven Toyota Mirai registered, a car that sits beautifully the British landscape in places like Hull-upon-Haven.
