SUV-Fest Edition
October was a near-record month in Belgium, with 926 units, with the hot sales trend continuing for yet another month, with the EV Share up once again to a record 1.86%, a stark departure from the 0.7% of last year.
As usual, SUV's are the Trend du Jour, with 5 out of the top 6 places in October belonging to such vehicles: The BMW X5 PHEV (121 units) won another Monthly Best-Seller trophy, its fourth in a row, followed by the arch rival Volvo XC90 T8 (103 units) and the rising star Audi Q7 e-Tron (82, personal best), while in #4 we have the fleet-friendly BMW 330e, with 71 units. In #5 we have the Porsche Cayenne Plug-in (67 units), followed by the Mercedes GLC350e (64, pb), another model that seems destined for success in this market.
Next to all these shiny, trendy SUV's, the BMW sedan almost looks pedestrian...

Another model with a great start is the BMW 740e, which scored 39 units in October, rising to #19 after just three months on the market. The Bimmer should prove popular near a certain Berlaymont building...

Looking at the BEV/PHEV breakdown, Belgium is starting to look more and more like the Netherlands, with plug-in hybrids increasing their share to 75%, up 22%(!) regarding last year.
