By Guillaume Séguin – 1st September 2020

On an August market almost stable (-4%), BEVs shine with sales up 72% and 296 units, brining the 100% electric cars market share above 6%! The year to date share is at 3.75%.

This month Kia is doing great with both E-Niro and E-Soul on top. followed by their cousin the Kona. The Zoé and Model 3 sold 27 models each. The Tesla is still 2nd year to date behind the Leaf but September (end of quarter) sales could give the American model the lead. And big up for whoever ordered a Renault Twizy :)

214 E-Sould have been sold so far this year

Used imports are back into negative territory after growth in July and are now becoming marginal, less than 10% of the level of new sales.

One more Renault Twizy on the road this month!
