Ford Has 1 Plugin Vehicle in Germany in October!
It seems the German automotive market has bottomed out and is back on a growth path. October brought a solid 17% increase in sales, but it still wasn’t enough to pull the year-to-date numbers out of the red . Sales of full electric vehicles were inline with the overall market, growing 17% year over year . There were 35,781 BEV registrations last month, which also incidentally represented 17% of the overall market.
But back to October results, we have another surprise in the last place on the podium. The VW ID.3 got 2,160 registrations, its best result since September 2021. Expect a peak month for the hatchback next December. As for the Model Y, because of the Giga Berlin production ramp-up and Tesla prioritising the German market, they naturally have more units available to be delivered in Germany right in the beginning of the quarter.
But there were also BEVs reaching record highs, like the #19 Renault Megane EV scoring 1,076 registrations. The French brand is hoping to replicate at least part of the success that the Renault Zoe once had on the other side of the Rhine river. The Polestar 2 joined the table, in #20, thanks to a record 1,073 registrations. This last result signals Volvo’s newfound belief in BEVs. Besides this record and top 20 presence from the Swede’s, its own BEV models also hit record scores in October.
