I wish they had data on which models were sold. Maybe we would see something relating to cheaper and smaller EVs?

- ska 2y agoCould be some Tesla fatigue too, showing up in these particular numbers.
- rekoil 2y agoDollars to donuts it's Chinese brands like MG, BYD, Nio, Zeekr, etc. taking most of the recent sales, they're just so much cheaper.
- Hamuko 2y agoVolvo too. I've been seeing the Volvo EX30 a lot recently, possibly because it offers 337 km of range and whatever people see in crossovers for 36 900€ whereas Tesla will charge you about 9100€ more for the cheapest Model Y. And if you go for the extended range model, you still get it for less than the Model Y, with like 20 km more to boot.
- rsynnott 2y agoI suspect also a _lot_ of id.3s and 4s, and Hyundais. Anecdotally, in Dublin, when I see a newly-registered electric car these days (Irish number plates have the year of registration as part of the number), nine times out of 10 it's either a Hyundai/Kia, or some sort of VW. That said, I think BYD was pretty late to get a right-hand drive model on the market, so they may be underrepresented here.
- wood_spirit 2y agoA few years ago Teslas were common but pretty much the only electric cars you’d see on the Swedish roads. And their build quality reputation wasn’t stellar. Nowadays there are far more other brands of electric car on the roads. Kia are perhaps the most common, and not-previously-heard-of Chinese brands are starting to appear. I think Elons own not-a-nice-person story also hurts Tesla.
