The local EV market sold 85 units last month, almost double of what it did the same month of 2014, with the YTD numbers at 156 units (and aprox. 0,53% EV Share), it's a promising start, considering that this is one of those markets with slow beginnings and strong endings.

Looking at the models ranking, February saw a new car reach the Monthly Best Seller title, with the Nissan e-NV200 reaching #1 for the first time, a first for a LCV-derived vehicle, which makes you wonder if companies and fleet managers are finally looking at electric vehicles with a more serious look.

This brilliant result took the japanese van straight to #2 in the YTD chart, only behind the Tesla Model S, with the BMW i3 ending the month at #3 YTD, while the Renault Zoe made a disappointing result, only registering 5 units and falling to #4.

But the tumble of the year has got to go to the Nissan Leaf, after a Best Seller title in 2014, this year things are much more complicated for the electric hatch, it is only #7, with 7 registrations YTD, when at the same time last year it had 80...

A mention for the PHEV Best Seller, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV registered 6 units, a new monthly record for plug-in hybrids, with their share now at a spectacular 5% of the EV market, five times more than they had a year ago...

Speaking of minorities, this February it was registered one Hyundai ix35 FCEV, representing 0,00003% of the total market.
