Tesla Model S Back At #1
The hangover is far from over, with sales (899) down 66% YoY.
The EV Share was down 0.03% to 2.36%, far, far from the 9.6% of last year.
Looking at the monthly ranking, the Monthly Best Seller award went to the Tesla Model S, with 188 deliveries, down 32% YoY. Softening demand or production constraints? Mmmm...
The BMW 330e performed a record 148 units, ending the month in Second, with its stablemate 225xe Active Tourer also impressing (83 units, year best), in #4.

In the YTD ranking, there were a number of significant changes, the most important of all being the recovery of the YTD Best Seller Throne by the Tesla Model S, but with only 51 units separating ot from the Volvo XC90 T8, the dispute for #1 is far from over.
In another good month for BMW, the 225xe Active Tourer continues to climb in the ranking, now up one position to #6, at the expenses of the Mercedes C350e, while the i3 had its best month of the year in June, with 45 units, climbing with it one place to #8 and promising more climbs as the longer range versions arrive Dutch shores.
In an atypical year due to fiscal changes, the VW Golf GTE, runner-up last year with more than 8.000 registrations, has dropped once again in the ranking, now to #12, with only 97 units YTD, being inclusively surpassed by its all-electric brethren, the e-Golf, #10 with 104 sales...

Despite sales being on a much lower level than last year, there are two models racing their ICE competitors with success, the Tesla Model S (188 units), was Second in its class, bested only by the BMW 5-Series (226 units), while the BMW i8 (8 sales) has beaten competition like the Audi TT (6 units), or its own BMW 6-Series relative (6 sales), but the Bavarian sports car is still far from the sales level of the Porsche 911, that with 40 units registered last month, is still the Golden Standard in its class.
Looking at the manufacturers ranking, BMW has reached the leadership (22%, up 3%), displacing Volvo (21%) from #1, while Tesla remained in Third, with 19% share.
