UK May 2015 (Draft)

UK Edition

Thanks to an article on Inside EV's (Hat Tip), i can now post a draft ranking of the UK.

The UK EV Market continues to impress, with almost 12.000 sold this year, it's  now the second largest market in the Old Continent, only behind Norway (And not by much, only 1.000 less), the EV Share holds steady above the 1% threshold (1,06%, to be more precise), well above the 0,56% of last year, or the paltry 0,16% recorded two years ago...

This stratospheric growth is mostly due to the continuous success of the Outlander PHEV and Nissan Leaf, but the market is growing even faster than them, with both losing some share points, as new models spread the spectre of new clients for EV's (Audi A3 e-Tron, Golf GTE, Porsche Cayenne Plug-In...) and buyers (Both private owners as fleet managers) across the several segments realize the benefits they can have by buying a brand new plug-in.
