Springtime Records - Still Going Strong
Another record breaking month in Austria, with 171 units registered, and with the YTD numbers now at 500 units, the all time record (1.193 EV's in 2012) seems to be well within the reach.
Austrians seem to have a new favorite for Number One, with the bavarian i3 winning the Best Seller title (45 units) for the third time in a row, with the french Zoe relegated to #2...By the third time in a row, just like the VW e-Up! (28 registrations), Third...For the third time in a row, so we see a clear 1-2-3 hierarchy here.
Other performances worthy of mention are the Volvo V60 Plug-In (19 units, personal best), the 12 units of the Smart Fortwo ED (Best result this year) and the 9 Twizies registered, a sign of warmer weather coming...
