Taxi Vehicle, one of the most common fleet deals for the Electric Nissan |
Alliance Edition
1.274 plug-ins were sold in Spain, achieving an EV Share of 0,18%, 0,06% behind the 2012 performance (0,24%), but the fall wasn't as bad as many feared in the beginning of the year, where in February the EV Share was just 0,04%...
The Nissan Leaf won the Best Seller Crown, with 263 units and 21% share, followed by its french cousins, the Renault Twizy (193 units, 15% Share) and the Renault Zoe (182 registrations, 14% share) closing the podium.
The rest of the market was heavily influenced by fleet deals and stock clearances, enabling the Mitsu I-Miev to finish #4 (Better than the #9 in '12, but still far from the #1 spot in '11), and the Fluence ZE in #5.
By brands, Renault won easily the competition with 45% share, followed by Nissan (21%) and Mitsubishi (11%), the Renault-Nissan Alliance as a whole got 66% share, so it's safe to say that for the moment the Alliance has this market covered.
It is hard to predict what will happen in 2014 at the Spanish EV Market, because fleet deals are big here, but it's expected that new, local incentives, could push sales up to close to 2.000 units/year.
