Feeling the Heat Edition
71 EV's were sold in Austria this February, continuing the average of the past months, maybe when the VW e-Golf joins the market things will shape up a bit...
For the time being, the love affair between the Renault Zoe and Austria seems to be in trouble, as new models come in to scene, this month the BMW i3 won the best seller title, with 22 sales, while the french hatch ended in #2 (19 units sold), although it's still #1 YTD.
In #3 came the VW e-Up!, surely another of the reasons for the poor performance of the Zoe.
