Electric car groups’ sales ranking in 2017
- In the first 9 months of 2017, sales of electric cars (100% electric = BEV, plus rechargeable hybrids = PHEV) amounted to 800,000 units worldwide, including 326,000 in China, 214,000 in Europe, 140,000 in United States and 26,000 in Japan. Electric car sales are expected to exceed the one million mark for the first time in 2017.
- Volumes are expected to grow rapidly over the next five years, partly because of the Chinese government's quotas for local producers, – which other governments should take as example – in order to boost sales of electric cars, and to fight against pollution and global warming.
- Admittedly, the announcements made by manufacturers suggest a sales volume of several million electric cars over the next two or three years, which can leave some doubts ... The Chinese government, on its side, expects more than two million sales in 2019, only in China ...
- We will remember in the future world, that in 2017, the leaders in electric cars were Renault-Nissan (90,000 sales over 9 months 2017), ahead of Tesla (73,000 sales), BYD (69,000 sales), BMW (68,000 sales), BAIC (54,000 sales), Zotye (52,000 sales), Volkswagen (47,000 sales), Toyota (39,000 sales), GM (38,000 sales), Daimler (24,000 sales). Of these ten leaders, only BYD ‘s sales fell year-on-year.
