Rise Of The Empire Edition
Close to 13.000 units were sold last month in the European EV market, and now with the Belgium numbers, there's a 75% improvement YoY, so the plug-in force continues to run strong in the Old Continent.
Looking at the monthly models ranking, the Outlander PHEV returned to the Best Seller seat, selling 1.711 units, followed closely by the VW Golf GTE (1.611 units).
Thebusiness-suit Golf GTE Audi A3 e-Tron continues to impress: Thanks to a second consecutive personal best performance (980 units in June, 1.310 now), the Ingolstadt model climbed for the first time to a podium seat and joined the short-listed club of four digit sales models.
Final mention for the good performance of the Tesla Model S, scoring for the first time a thousand-something result in a first month of the quarter (1.106 units, to be precise), rising 130% YoY, a significant result for a model that starts in the high 60.000's of euros.
Looking at the YTD ranking, the VAG Group products are rising, the VW Golf GTE is now dangerously close to the #4 Tesla Model S, the Audi A3 e-Tron is up one position to #7, while the VW e-Up! is back at Tenth spot, making four VAG models in the Top 10, not bad, considering that only ten months ago it had just one representative...
On the Losers side, besides the (Soon to be) discontinued models like the Smart Fortwo ED, Opel Ampera and the like, there are two models that deserve a special attention, the Volvo V60 Plug-In sold only 349 units, its worst result of the year, while the BMW i3, on top of losing one position to the Audi A3 e-Tron (It is now #8 versus #4 twelve months ago), was down 11% YoY, which is a bad sign when you are in a fast growing market. Is the little Bimmer starting to show its first wrinkles?
Looking at the brands ranking, Volkswagen is now officially the holder of Europe's EV Manufacturers Throne (18%), followed closely by the now dethroned Mitsubishi (17%).
As for the Third Place, Renault (13%) won just a little more distance from its japanese cousin, Nissan, in Fourth with 12%.
