The e-Golf took the lead, can the i3 respond? |
VW Leads the Way
We now have access to a full EV ranking for the Czech Republic, the EV Share is now at a respectable 0.17%, with YTD sales jumping 231 units, being the first time that this market reaches the tree digit plateau.
Volkswagen was the unsung hero here, it had been under the radar until now, but with over 80 units sold, it is leading the manufacturers ranking with 37% share, while BMW drops to #2 (24% share), just like its smaller i3.
Other models that were now brought to light were the Nissan e-NV200 / Evalia twins in #6 with 14 units, the #7 Mitsu Outlander PHEV (11 units) and the Audi A3 e-Tron, #8 for the moment but with a Top 3 place in its sights.
