| Darn 2.000 units barrier!... | 
Record Edition
June sales reached an unexpected level, with over 14.000 units registered, a new all-time record, with the EV share increasing 0.05% to 0.74%, a new all time high.
The Tesla Model S was the Best Seller in June, delivering some 3.500 units, displacing the Chevrolet Volt back to the runner-up position, it seems the GM product can't overcome the 2.000 units/month barrier (It was the third consecutive month in the 1.900's), a somewhat disappointing performance.
Another record performance for the Ford Fusion Energi, registering a surprising 1.700 units, but despite this, the #4 Tesla Model X continues to improve its numbers, now at 2.145 units.

The Model X has a tough job ahead, not only by the large number of competitors, but also because they are selling faster than their sedan relatives, in June the Model X reached a bit closer to the top, rising to the Sixth Position of its class.
