Austria December 2015 (Updated)

Tesla Wins Austria 

217 new EV's were registered in Austria last month, up 23% regarding the same month last year.

Looking at the models ranking, the Tesla Model S is the new undisputed king of the EV ranking, with 18% share and 492 units, 23% above the previous record set last year by the Renault Zoe (387 sales).

But what about Tesla's real competition? All of them are still high above the Californian, with the Audi A6 and BMW 5-Series in the four-digit area and the Merc E-Class with double the sales. A lot of room to grown here...

Looking at the remaining front runner seats, this year the Renault Zoe was beaten by the BMW i3 Arch-Rival, which ended in Second.

In the manufacturers ranking, Tesla won its first title (18% Share), with last year winner, Renault, dropping to Third Place (13%), surpassed by Volkswagen, with 14% Share. 

Looking into 2016, the growth will continue on a moderate pace, losing ground to neighboring countries (Switzerland...), if the 4.000 units are achieved by 31st December, 2016, it will be considered a good year.
