October brought a surprise in the monthly ranking, after almost one year (November '12, to be exact) away from the top spot, the Prius Plug-In returned to #1 with 2.095 units sold (A new personal best), a smidge above the 2.022 units of the Chevy Volt (#2) and the third placed Nissan Leaf (2.002 units sold).
The Energi cousins from Ford continue to improve, with the Fusion scoring yet again a new personal best (1.087 units), and the C-Max (1.092 units) making a new year best number.
The rest of the ranking saw two changes in the YTD ranking, with the Toyota RAV4 EV passing the Mitsu I-Miev to #8 and the Honda Accord Plug-In benefits from a best ever score of...71 registrations to climb to #12.
