Zoe Edition
With some 11.500 units, the European EV market had its third best month ever and a 40% improvement over the same month last year.
Looking at the monthly models ranking, there was a surprise in April, with the Renault Zoe topping the chart for the first time this year, ending a three month consecutive lead from the Outlander PHEV, while the Nissan Leaf is back at the three digit area, with the increasingly menacing Audi A3 e-Tron (854 units, third consecutive personal best) now at #6, ready to join the Top 5 Club.
Looking at the YTD ranking, the headlines belong to the Renault Zoe, up two positions to #3, kicking the Model S out of the podium. In a curious note, the Top 4 best selling cars are the same as as last year and by the same order.
In other news, April was a positive month for Porsche, as both the Cayenne and the Panamera Plug-Ins climbed in the ranking, the first is now #12, while the second jumped two positions to #23.
Looking at the brands ranking, there were some significant changes: Volkswagen (17% Share) lost the leadership in favor of Mitsubishi (20%), while Nissan surpassed Renault and is now Third, only two points behind (15%) the german carmaker. Can this mean that VW's blitz early in the year is now fading?
