The Italian EV Market ended February with 411 units sold YTD and an EV Share of 0,16%, will this means that the 2012 record of 2.348 units (Peak of the Twizy Fever) will be beaten?
The Top 5 suffered some changes regarding last year, with the 2014 Best Seller Nissan Leaf stumbling to Fifth, and the Renault Zoe leading the way in #1, with an impressive 118 units YTD (Last year it had sold 155 in the whole year), while Italy continues to be a safe haven for the Twizy, with the tiny two seater in Second Place. The #3 is a surprise, with the Mitsu Outlander PHEV rising to the last of the podium, a first for a plug-in hybrid, in what was once a pure electric loving market. PHEV's now have 23% share, when just last year they had 10%...
The BMW i8 also impresses, it is the Second Best Selling PHEV, and #7 in the EV market, not bad for a six-figure sports car, eh?
