2013 Chery QQ3 EV |
Looking at the chinese EV ranking is like stepping in a parallel universe taken from Fringe TV Series, as they are electric cars like in other markets but with strange names and faces.
Once you get used to it, another thing that hits you are the numbers, as they are unexpectedly big, after all this was the third largest plug-in market in 2012, and also the suspicion that these numbers could be even higher, because it's difficult to get numbers from the chinese EV market, for example both Chery and Zotye numbers could be in reality some 50% higher than the ones that have been posted here.
