Denmark December 2016



Renault Zoe 2016 Best Seller, Model X Rookie of the Year


The 320 units registered last month were the best result of the year, pulling the year tally to 1.438 units, which was still a 70% drop over last year and most importantly, less than 2014, when the market reached 1.642 units. 

Same story regarding the EV Share, the 0.65% of 2016 is way behind the 2.29% of 2015 and even 2014 was better, with 0.88%...Let's hope 2017 brings better news from this market.

The top two models concentrated 61% of sales, with the Renault Zoe winning without a sweat its First Best Seller award, with 612 units and 43% share, followed by the BMW i3 (252 units, 18%), while the Third Place was won by the Tesla Model X, a model received with open arms by the Danes, allowing it to be the Rookie of the Year and earn a podium seat.

Looking at the remaining models ranking, the two times Best Seller (2013 & 2014) Nissan Leaf jumped in December to Fourth, thanks to a year best performance of 57 registrations, displacing the Tesla Model S to #5.


In the Manufacturers ranking, Renault was the Best Seller (43%) thanks to the Zoe success, with BMW ending in a distant Second (18%) and Tesla in Third (12%), with the French carmaker winning its second title, after the 2012 win.

In this BEV-heavy market, PHEV's did some groundwork and grew to 11% share in 2016, up from just 3% in 2015.

Finally a mention to Fuel Cells, there were 16 FCEV's registered in 2016, significantly below the 30 units sold in the previous year, the soon-to-be-departed Hyundai ix35 FCEV still outsold the Toyota Mirai by 12 units to 4, despite the Japanese having better specs, it seems buyers prefer the normal look of the Hyundai.
