| Best Seller in November |
Record Edition - Getting Hotter Every Month
Another amazing month in the Chinese EV Market, this time above 25.000 units, a new world record, with YTD sales now above the 150.000 units, also a global record...As result, the EV Share rose again to 0.9%, an incredible result if you consider that last year ended at 0.25% and in 2013 it was just 0.09%!
Not only the numbers surged fourfold regarding the same month last year, but November marked the fourth consecutive record-breaking month!
Not only the numbers surged fourfold regarding the same month last year, but November marked the fourth consecutive record-breaking month!
This raises the question: "How high will this market go in December? 30.000? 35?"
The ranking is also changing rapidly, with several changes:
* The Best Seller in November was again the Kandi Panda EV, with 4.153 units, a slight drop from the previous 4.581 units, but still enough for a Third consecutive Best Seller of the Month trophy and to reach the runner-up position, changing places with the BAIC E-Series EV;
* The BYD Tang climbed another position, it is now #4, thanks to a record 4.049 units, the best monthly result ever achieved by a BYD model;
* Despite dropping to #4, the Zotye Cloud EV managed to score a new personal record last month, by registering 3.730 units;
As for the YTD leader and once 13 consecutive times Monthly Best Seller, BYD Qin, it was only #6 in November, immediately behind the BAIC E-Series EV.

The second new EV isn't actually new, but thanks to some tweaks and a name change, we could count the Zotye TT EV as a new addition, especially considering that it sold 946 units last month, so it's no longer a compliance SUV, but with it, Zotye wants to have a competitor to the upcoming BYD Yuan mini-SUV. dephth
Finally, looking at the manufacturers ranking, BYD leads the way, with 34%, followed by #2 Kandi, with 14%, Zotye (13%) and BAIC (10%, down 1%) in Fourth.
