All Mighty Tesla - 2nd Chapter
Just when you thought BMW had secured last August a record that would last for years, Tesla scores in November a mammoth result of 525 units!
This amazing result, although comprehensible, considering the upcoming fiscal changes, nonetheless impresses by the sheer numbers in a small auto market like this one, placing the Californian on the Top 5 of the general ranking, and contributing decisively (81% of sales) to a new sales record in the Danish EV market, with 648 units, with the EV Share surging to 1,64%, almost doubling last year result of 0.88%.
As a side note, there were just 526 EV's registered in the whole of 2013...Expect Tesla to post another extraterrestrial result in December, and then...Early 2016 will be the hangover, a bit like the Netherlands in early 2014.
Regarding the manufacturers ranking, Tesla if far ahead everyone else, with 48% share (Up 9%), followed by BMW (18%, down 3%) and Nissan (16%, down 4% and waiting for the 30kWh version).
A final mention to Fuel Cell Vehicle sales, there was one new Toyota Mirai registered its third unit, making it 17 Fuel Cells in total sold this year.
