With some 7.100 units sold and still without the Austria numbers, the European EV market continues in good health, having sold twice as much as last year (3.578 units in July '13).
Looking at the models ranking, the Top 10 positions continue the same, with Outlander PHEV strong in #1, ahead of the #2 Nissan Leaf and the BMW i3 looking to get close of the #3 Tesla Model S, which had an off month, selling just 398 units, as it is usual in the first month of each Quarter.
Below the #10 Renault Twizy, things are more interesting, with three newcomers climbing in the YTD ranking, the E-Golf (#6 in July with 456 sales) is up four positions to #11, the Nissan e-NV200 up one position to #21 and the BMW i8 up two to #23.
