Zoe is Rising Edition

178 EV's were sold last month in Switzerland, with three models representing the bulk of sales:

- The BMW i3 was the third Best Selling EV in June, with 32 units, losing ground to the #2...

- ...Renault Zoe, #2 YTD with 186 sold this year, 40 of them last month (Best result of the year), keeping its runner-up position in the YTD chart. Will this growth continue?

- The winner of the month (62 units), is also the YTD leader (253), the Model S from Tesla is for now the undisputed EV king in Switzerland.

Looking at the manufacturers ranking, the race is tight, with Tesla in Second (29% share), just behind the leader Renault (30%) and with BMW (20%) lurking behind these two. Speaking of BMW, the i8 landed with its first two units, given the Swiss taste for high-end performance cars, this should be one of the markets where the german sports car will be most successful.
