Tesla Model 3 & egrave; the most beautiful car sold in Europe in September 2021 . We are not talking about the ranking of the electric market but about the overall one . The American electric sedan has beaten everyone in the last month, surpassing models such as the Renault Clio, the Dacia Sandero and the Volkswagen Golf. This is both the first time that a battery-powered model has reached this position, and that the primacy belongs to a vehicle not produced in Europe.
This important result is; was certified by Jato Dynamics who took a snapshot of the European market for September.
As the report points out, last month & egrave; It was particularly difficult for the automotive sector with a sharp decline both towards 2020 and 2019. A situation attributable, in large part, to the chip crisis . Felipe Munoz , Global Analyst at JATO Dynamics, commented:
Dealers continue to face problems with availability; of new cars due to chip shortage. Consequently, not wanting to wait any longer; than a year for a new car, many consumers have turned to the used car market.
Jato Dynamics points out that the year was off to a good start, but due to the problem of the supply of semiconductors the gain of the first months & egrave; been almost completely eroded. In electricity and plug-ins go against the trend, sales of which are mainly driven by the incentives made available. However, the growth of electric vehicles is not enough to offset the losses of other market segments.
The industry responded well to the pandemic in 2021, but is now facing new supply chain challenges. The growing popularity of electric vehicles & egrave; encouraging, but sales are still not strong enough to compensate for the large drops seen in other segments.
GREAT SUCCESS FOR MODEL 3
Strong growth in electric vehicles has allowed Tesla Model 3 to achieve this important result in September. With almost 24,600 registrations , can & ograve; count on a market share in the month of 2.6%. It should be pointed out that the result of the American electric is also due to the fact that Tesla has pushed hard on deliveries of its cars in view of the end of the quarter.
This does not mean, however, that this is a very important result. Focusing the attention on the ranking of the electric, it turns out that in second place, even if very detached, there is; the Model Y whose deliveries in Europe have just started. Thanks to the success of these two models, Tesla leads the BEV market with a share of 24%, ahead of the Volkswagen Group with 22%, Stellantis with 13% and Hyundai-Kia with almost 11%.
Third step of the podium, however, for the Volkswagen ID.3 which thus becomes the first electric model of the classification produced in the Old Continent.
