The #2 Mitsu Outlander PHEV sold 243 units, its best result since last May, while the #3 Tesla Model S also hit a record, never before had the american car sold so much in a single month here, but 211 units are also a respectable performance in the highly competitive full-size-luxury-sport-sedan German General Ranking, to put this result in context, the Merc CLS sold 532 units last month, the #2 Audi A7 sold 426, while the BMW 6-series sold only 12 more units (223) than the Tesla.
