France November 2015

Great landing for the motorway bruiser, middle-managers can now go green too!

VW Passat GTE Lands 

The French EV market continues on a high note, with 2.688 units sold, doubling sales regarding the same month last year, pulling the YTD EV Share to yet another record, now at 1.37%, or 0.05% more than a month ago.

Looking at the monthly models ranking, it's business as usual in the leadership, with the Renault Zoe on top, although was down 19% regarding the previous month, the Kangoo ZE relative in Second, with 346 units (Second best performance of the year), with the Nissan Leaf recovering the Third Spot, with 173 sales.

A mention to the VW Passat GTE, debuting with a bang, with 107 units registered right away (New landing month record), allowing it to reach #8 in November. For the record, its smaller relative, the Golf GTE, landed with 69 units, will this mean that the midsizer VW will outsell its hatch relative next year? Further more, will it reach #3? #2, even?

Looking at the YTD ranking, the main change was the Renault Kangoo ZE returning to Second Place, switching positions with the Nissan Leaf and placing the podium exactly as last year (And in 2013...).

But there were other changes, the Mitsu Outlander PHEV climbed to #7 (125 units, pb of the year), the Peugeot iOn rose one position to #9, as did the Renault Twizy and Kia Soul EV, now #11 and #13, respectively, with the Korean celebrating another personal best, with 65 sales in November, while the Citröen C-Zero was up one position, to #16. 

The performance of the I-Miev triplets deserve a special mention, as they seem to have been one of the main benefitters of the Superbonus scheme (Thanks to it, they cost only 12.000€...), let's compare their current performance to what they had a year ago:

- Peugeot iOn, #9 in Nov. 2015, with 630 units (#12 in Nov.2014, with 206 units);  

- Citröen C-Zero, #16, 321 units (#13, 151);

- Mitsubishi I-Miev, #30, 38 units (0 units in 2014), with an all time record of 42 sales set in 2011.

In the Luxury SUV niche, the BMW X5 plug-in seems to be en vogue, beating the Cayenne Plug-In by 52 vs 44, while also jumping four positions to #20 in the YTD ranking.

In the manufacturers ranking, everything stayed the same, with Renault stable in the lead (50% Share), followed by Nissan (10%) and Volkswagen (9%).
