| (In Icelandic) "But Mr. Police Officer, i hadn't realized i was going so fast!...Damn you, Tesla and your powerful electric engine!" |
91 EV's were sold in Iceland this year, which already more than the 72 sold last year, jumping the EV Share from 0,94% to 2,00%, the third highest in the world.
This year it has "Nissan Leaf" sold all over the place, with the japanese car sellling 64 units, representing 70% of the market, with the other model selling significantly being the Tesla Model S (11 units).
An interesting fact is that this is now a predominantly BEV market, with PHEV's now at just 13% share, half of what they had last year (26%) and far away from the 50% in 2012.
