Poland is on The Map Edition
While we wait for the complete numbers from China (Hint: BYD Qin has beaten yet again its sales record), we have the numbers from Poland, a rare sight here on EVS, but the numbers are now starting to deserve a mention.
With 48 plug-ins sold this year, sales aren't exactly skyrocketing, but they are already above the previous record of 39 units, and with still one third of the year to go, the EV Share is now at a brilliant...0.019%. That, compared with the 0,010% of last year it is a 90% improvement, and how they use to say, you have to learn how to crawl before you learn how to walk.
Looking at the models ranking, the BMW i3 is king and has reached the record 22 sales of the Mitsu I-Miev in 2011, still the best performance for a single car here.
A mention for the worthy performance of the Tesla Model S, in #3 with 7 sales, as well as the first registration of the BMW i8, these last two cars seem to be fulfilling the role of plug-in explorers, planting the ceed of ev's in markets with little reception to plug-ins.
