Norway February 2017

 Ease off the accelerator

After a record January, things slowed down to a more average pace in February, with 3.904 new plug-in passenger cars sold in Norway last month, up 12% YoY, with the market share slightly down to 35%.

Looking at the Top Sellers, if the #1 BMW i3 doesn't surprise anyone right now, the Second Place of the VW Passat GTE, with 433 units (New sales record for the second month in a row) shows that the German Midsizer is catching on in Norway and could be an important player this year.

The #3 Nissan Leaf (408 units, best result in 10 months) is a welcome surprise, especially considering that a new version should come out sometime this year. With Nissan heavily discounting its electric model, the current Leaf seems to have some space in the market.

The #5 Renault Zoe is benefitting from its ZE 40 version to reach the top positions, having delivered 279 units, its best result in 8 months.

1	BMW i3	497
2	Volkswagen Passat GTE	433
3	Nissan Leaf	408
4	Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV	386
5	Renault Zoe	279

Looking at the YTD ranking, the Nissan Leaf climbed to Third Place, while the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV jumped 11 places to a more normal #4, and the Renault Zoe climbed two positions to #5.

On the other hand, the Volvo XC90 PHEV was down three positions to #6, which was the same number of places lost by the Tesla Model X, now #11.

In the second half of the ranking, two models deserve a mention, after a bad start of the year, the Mercedes B250e was up four positions to #17, thanks to 129 units, while the Hyundai Ioniq Electric, after three months in the three digit area, slumped to just 26 units. Hyundai needs to increase production to meet demand, assuming or course, it wants to...

In the manufacturers ranking, Volkswagen (22%, up 2%) and BMW (20%, up 2%) are running for the leadership, while Mercedes (11% share) secured the Third Place over the Fourth Place Volvo (9%).

Looking at Fuel Cell numbers (0,03% share, highest in the world), Hyundai registered an additional two FCEV's last month, increasing the count this year to eight, while the Toyota Mirai is stuck at a big round Zero. Not a good sign, Toyota...

With 35% share, plug-ins are spreading across the general ranking, with the BMW i3 winning this ranking for the fourth time in five months(!) and five plug-ins in the Top 10.

The remaining podium positions went also to plug-ins, with the VW Passat GTE, ending the month in Second and the veteran Nissan Leaf in Third.

The other plug-ins in the ranking are the Outlander PHEV, in #5, and the French Zoe, in #9.

Interestingly, the two regular ICE vehicles in the Top 10, the #6 Volvo V90 and the #8 VW Tiguan are said to grow a plug sometime this year.
