"I am i8" Edition
After Year Zero in 2014, the South African EV Market is proving to have an encouraging start despite having only three models available, the Nissan Leaf and the BMW i offerings.
160 units were sold this year, already surpassing last year result (140 units), with the EV Share doubling from 0,02% to 0,04%.
The models ranking has a surprising #1, as the BMW i8 is leader since June, surpassing its smaller brother, the i3, this is the first time that a EV Market covered by EVS has the i8 as YTD #1.
The other plug-in offering, the Nissan Leaf, is less successfull in SA, selling only 27 units this year. Lack of Premium appeal?
| Pl | South Africa | July | YTD | % | |
| 1 | BMW i8 | 10 | 67 | 42 | |
| 2 | BMW i3 | 10 | 66 | 41 | |
| 3 | Nissan Leaf | 5 | 27 | 17 | |
| TOTAL | 25 | 160 | 100 |
