The V60 is gaining momentum

Third Best Edition

551 new EV's were registered last month, the third best month ever, pulling the EV Share  to 1,77%. Let's hope these numbers don't too much, now that the Swedish government ended subsidies for this year...

Looking at the models ranjking, the Outlander PHEV (279 units) continues to rule the market, winning every single monthly trophy since last November, its first full sales month in Sweden. 

Volvo is recovering sales momentum, with the V60 Plug-In registering 132 sales, its best result since March '13, and even the jurassic C30 Electric registered three units...As much as the VW e-Golf, both sharing the #12 spot in the YTD chart with 16 units, something is happening with the german hatch here, it just can't seem to take off.

The Renault Zoe continues to be a regular presence in the monthly Top 5, while the BMW i3 rounds up the table with 21 units, with only 3 of them being BEV, is the winter chill doing something here?
