Sweden June 2015




Golf GTE lands with a Bang in another Record Month

With 912 units sold, the Swedish EV Market continues on fire, beating previous records almost every month, pulling the EV Share north of 2%, to 2,16%,and making it the fifth highest EV Share market in the world, only below Norway, the Netherlands, Hong Kong and Iceland.

This continued rise-and-rise of the swedish EV market is starting to show in the local automotive market, placing the Outlander PHEV, the EV Best-Seller in June, in #4 on the Crossover/SUV segment and #30 in the global ranking, and the Tesla Model S in #5 in the E-Class/Full-size Segment.

Also of interest is the significant landing of the Golf GTE, registering 103 units right on its first month, making it the best debut month ever for an EV, while at the same time placing it in #3 in the Monthly Ranking and #10 in the YTD chart (Already Best Selling Rookie), although these early numbers impress, the GTE represented just 6% of June's VW Golf sales, so the potential here is huge, making it a serious contender to a podium seat and maybe even overtaking the all-mighty Outlander PHEV out of the YTD leadership.

Looking at the YTD chart, the podium stays the same, but below it, the Volvo V60 Plug-In (79 units, year best) recovered ground, jumping two positions to #4, thus getting closer to last year runner-up position.

The Renault Zoe had a good month (41 units, best result this year), climbing in result one position to #8, while the Mercedes C350e is continuing to climb positions at the bottom of the ranking it is now #16, but a Top 10 position could be a possibility in a couple of months.

On the manufacturers ranking, there aren't any significant changes, with Mitsubishi on top (30%), Nissan Second with 20% share (Down 3%), and Volkswagen Third, with 11% (Up 1%).

Regarding the BEV/PHEV share, pure electrics continue to overrun (53/47) Plug-in Hybrids, but the presumable success of the Golf GTE will probably give PHEV's that extra performance to overtake BEV's in this traditional plug-in hybrid turf (They outsell BEV's since 2012)
