Keeping the positive note for the domestic models, the Peugeot iOn ended the month selling 100 units, while its Citroen twin, the C-Zero, had its best performance in 18 months by registering 54 new cars. while its utilitarian brother, the Berlingo EV, broke its personal record, by selling 45 units.

Looking at the YTD ranking, there were a couple of position changes, the Bolloré Blue Car climbed to #5, switching positions with the Audi A3 e-Tron, the Porsche Cayenne Plug-in climbed to #11 and finally the Citroen Berlingo EV jumped to #21.

A couple of new models arrived recently, with the BMW X5 Plug-in and Mercedes GLE500e ready to race the Porsche Cayenne Plug-in for the title of best selling luxury SUV, and looking at early signs, it seems the Bimmer is destined to be the #1 next year. Another new entry is the BYD e6, the two units registered represent the first venture from BYD in french territories, probably just to test the waters.

In the manufacturers ranking, everything stayed the same, with Renault stable in the lead (50% Share), followed by Nissan (10%, down 1%) and Volkswagen (9%).
