This Beauty seems to be condemned to be the Runner-up in Holland... |
After some months of relative low-profile, the 2013 Best Seller Outlander PHEV is back in charge with over 1.560 sales, followed at a distance by the V60 Plug-In (401 units), with these two pulling the EV market to 2.251 registrations, best month of the year.
Far and away from the first two, there's the rest of the competition, with the VW e-Up! in Third, with 90 sales, followed by the archenemy BMW i3 (77 units) and in #5 we have the Model S from Tesla (49 sales), probably waiting for more stock to refill dealers.
The EV share is up again to 4,21% and the question now is...Will it reach the 5,55% recorded last year?
