BMW i3 and Renault Zoe Shine Edition
The general performance of the Norwegian EV market continues to amaze, there were 2.889 EV's sold, up 29% YoY, with the EV Share shooting to 26%, an interesting fact is that PHEV's continue to win share, now at 27% vs 25% in 2015 and only 10% in '14. Maybe the fact that many charging points becoming overcrowded might have something to do with this...
Looking at the models ranking, the e-Golf stayed in the lead for the tenth consecutive month, with the BMW i3 in Second (294 units) and Leaf ending in Third, a rather disappointing month, selling 284 units, down 25 on the 309 registered in January '15.
The Renault Zoe sold a surprising 197 units, up 150% YoY, which confirms that the french hatch has reached its full sales potential and is ready to go head-to-head with its B-Segment nemesis, the i3.
Final mention for the good reception of the BMW X5 40e (119 sales) and Volvo XC90 T8 (104), endangering the long rule of the Outlander PHEV (121) in SUV-land.
Looking at EV's in the general ranking, besides the usual lead of the e-Golf, the BMW i3 (#5) and Renault Zoe (#15) deserve a mention, with only the Toyota Yaris (#3, with 317 units) outselling them in the subcompact car class.
If we add the Leaf (#6 overall, #3 in C-Segment, behind the Toyota Auris) and the A3 e-Tron (#16 overall #4 in the C-Segment), to the three above mentioned, we have five plug-ins in the Norwegian Top 20!
Looking at the manufacturers ranking, Volkswagen (31%) continues in the lead, followed at a distance by BMW (14%) and Nissan (12%).
