Looking at last month numbers, the BYD Qin continues to grow, albeit more slowly (Up 49 units regarding last month), the #3 Zotye E20 had a somewhat poor performance, selling only 381 units (Worst result since May), but it's still hoping to displace the now discontinued Chery QQ3 EV from the Second Spot.
The surprise of the month came from BAIC, its refreshed E150 EV, now called E200 EV, reached for the first time the four-digit sales area, selling 1.040 units, placing it in Second on the November ranking and enabling it to rise to #5 in the YTD table. Just to compare numbers, in 2013 BAIC had sold only 710 E150's...
Editor's Note - After the confusion generated by wrong Kandi numbers, i've decided it´s better to leave Kandi out of the ranking, their numbers just aren't as reliable as BYD, for example, and besides, they create background noise that diverts attention from the overall picture. If their numbers (Beyond the Quarlerly results) become easier and more reliable to find, i will gladly include them here.
