Hangover Edition

We start 2016 with the Swedish EV market,  which registered 278 units, down 7% YoY, a natural event after the sales rush of last December (2.080 units!).

The usual leader Outlander PHEV is all but gone, having registered 0 units last month, and for the first time since December 2013, we have a new monthly leader: The Nissan Leaf, with 47 units, winning its first monthly trophy since September '13!

Two Volvo's and one Renault follow it, with the #3 Volvo XC90 T8 proving to be a popular choice, despite its high price.

1	Nissan Leaf	47

On the manufacturers ranking, Volvo is back on top (27%) in its home market, followed by Nissan in Second with 20%, and a sensational Renault in Third, with 16% share, as a matter of fact, it has been two years since the swedish and the french carmakers were so high on the ranking.
