New Year, Old News Edition

If there is one to define the canadian ev market, that is "Boring" "Stability", you can write the post without knowing the actual data, because it will be something like this:

"Volt on top of the charts, Tesla and Leaf fight for Second place, the rest of the pack far behind"

Finally a remark on the Prius performance: This January it has only sold 4 Units, when a year ago sales mounted to 33...
