2022 is not; started well for the Italian auto market. As we have seen, in January there is; was a drop of 19.7% compared to the same month of 2021. A sign, therefore, certainly not encouraging for a sector that is experiencing a very complex period between the consequences of the pandemic and the problem of supply of semiconductors. As UNRAE highlighted, the lack of the Ecobonus is starting to be felt too . Although the segments of electric cars and plug-in models have still grown since January 2021, there is; was a clear decline compared to December 2021.
However, it is worth noting that some of these models were still ordered when the incentives were in place. Therefore, to better understand if the absence of the Ecobonus will penalize these segments it will take & agrave; a little more of time. There is however a first sign. Hybrid models, on the other hand, continue to do well. What were the most popular cars? sold in January 2022 in these market segments in Italy?
TOP 10 ELECTRIC JANUARY 2022 
In first place we find the Dacia Spring with 656 units & agrave; registered. Is not serious; the first time this model wins the first position in that particular ranking. Behind it we find the electric Fiat 500 with 548 units. Third step of the podium for the electric Renault Twingo. It is worth noting the eighth position of the Volkswagen ID.3 and the tenth of the Ford Mustang Mach-E.
And the Tesla? After the push of the & # 39; American company to get to deliver the most & ugrave; high possible number of cars in the last period of 2021, in January the Model 3 is not; entered the top 10. Overall, in January 2022, 3,658 electric cars (BEVs) were registered in Italy .

Coming to Plug-ins, in first and second place we find two Jeeps, the Compass and the Renegade .
