So, the reality could be some 10% higher than the ones i have here. <br /><br />José Ponteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13927229481945352747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399793419425111085.post-9931705276437543742019-02-07T17:39:45.602+00:002019-02-07T17:39:45.602+00:00Here are the most important non-Chinese EVs that w...Here are the most important non-Chinese EVs that were below the Top 20:<br />Chevrolet Bolt - 28k;<br />VW eGolf - 24k;<br />Chevrolet Volt - 23k.<br /><br />José Ponteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13927229481945352747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399793419425111085.post-4399050333939464122019-02-07T01:25:52.529+00:002019-02-07T01:25:52.529+00:00Jose,
Really interesting post - couple of questio...Jose,<br /><br />Really interesting post - couple of questions:<br />1. When you say ICE Vehicle Crash, is this an arbitrary measure of the percentage market share required for EV's to be far enough along the technology adoption curve that the main global players will rapidly switch from ICE's to EV's? Or is it taking it into account falling battery prices? Or anything else?<br /><br />2. How reliable is your data - as in how much uncertainty do you think there is in a statistic such as 286,000 units sold in December worldwide? Do you get this statistic as a whole from somewhere, or are you personally collaborating data from different EV producers?<br /><br />Thanks for your time, big fan<br /><br />ChrisChrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399793419425111085.post-59596362824836083102019-02-06T18:22:19.642+00:002019-02-06T18:22:19.642+00:00Nothing particular.

In the heavy-duty segment you got Daimler, Scania, Hino, etc. When Toyota, VW or GM were the global top selling manufacturer of year XX, sales refered to passenger cars (sedans, SUVs, etc.) Does BMW count its motorcycles to rank among car manufacturerer. Please, we should not mix bananas and apples. So, because BYD lost the crown after 3 years-in-a-row of being King, the Chinese company is now counting differently just to say they were ahead of Tesla?<br />Not fair to change the rules when you are losing.
