The Rise and Rise of the Qin Edition
Based on certified data and past performances, the presumed Top 5 goes like this, the BYD Qin continues to impress, selling 1.008 units in May (First time a plug-in sells in the thousands), while the other players post solid numbers, allowing the Chinese EV market to register another sales record (Third in a row), with 2.778 units.
To put it in perspective, this was the second best result of an individual market in May, behind the unattainable USA (12.053 units), but ahead of the Netherlands, third with 1.909 units sold.
A final mention for Tesla, its Model S made it to #5 thanks to the 532 units sold in May, and the April numbers are still missing...
