- BMW and its i3 were the Best Selling EV in April, with 48 units, best result of the year for the german, but it's still #3 YTD;
- The Renault Zoe, was #2 with 32 units, keeping its runner-up position in the YTD chart, now followed closely by the i3 (109 units vs 104);
- Third in April (16 units), but leader YTD (149), the Model S from Tesla is now being chased by the aforementioned hatches above, with the race for Best Seller starting to look interesting.
