Despite declining growth rates, the European passenger plugin vehicle market is still growing significantly (+10% in March), especially considering the overall market continues to fall off a cliff, down 19% year over year (YoY) last
is still growing significantly , especially considering the overall market continues to fall off a cliff, down 19% year over year last month .
Also worthy of notice is the fact that besides the EV disruption, the overall market is being heavily changed by other factors as well, like the chip shortage, which is tanking registrations from most OEMs.Kia is the big beneficiary of the current disruption.
In the second half of the table, there were three record performances. SAIC’s MG eHS crossover scored a best ever 3,285 deliveries, allowing it a rare top 20 presence. Another Made in China nameplate, the #19 Polestar 2, also had a record month, with 3,139 registrations. In fact, out of the five Made in China models here , three of them hit record scores, which says a lot about what is going on right now….
With both models already having a sizable distance over the #3 Fiat 500e, both top positions are already decided, with the only question being their order. Will the crossover surpass the sedan in the remainder of the year?, with the crossover jumping seven spots, to 5th, contributing to a 100% BEV top 5.
But the German hatchback is not alone here, as other smaller EVs have seen significant tumbles in the table, like the Renault Zoe dropping to 9th from 3rd a year ago, and the Peugeot e-208 dropping from 7th in March 2021 to 15th last month, highlighting the loss of significance of cheaper models in the table, but more on this later.
Answering a reader question a few months ago, I mentioned that the different fiscal incentives and consumer tastes make European markets differ significantly between each other, so now I will mention the best sellers in the top 18 markets in Europe, in order to have a better understanding of each of them.
