In the US Tesla Model 3 beat the competitors so that the market EV fell

8 August 2019

In the us market reigns PEV electric vehicle Tesla Model 3

In the first half of 2019, according to the website EV-volumes in the US market went 149,5 thousand PEV, i.e. electric vehicles (BEV) and plug-in hybrids (PHEV), which is 23% more than in the first half of 2018.

Formally, the PEV market grows in the U.S. well, covering the monthly figures of previous years 

Of them on BEV accounted for 72% and PHEV – 28%.

The proportion of PEV on the overall passenger car market in the first half of 2019 1.8% compared to 1.4% in the first half of 2018 and for the year should reach the level of 2.2%

Despite the relatively poor results of the first quarter, the share of the brand Tesla accounted for 57% of all PEV, implemented in the United States, and considering only BEV, Tesla's share rose to 78%.

In addition, four of the five electric cars Tesla sold in the US was Model 3, which remains the best-selling electromodel all over the world.

However, there is not so optimistic process – Model 3 does not inspire the market to increase the popularity of PEV as a whole. His exclusion of most of the competitors showed lower sales for the half year, particularly in the passenger car segment, while electrocreaser had shot better. Problem was the cessation of the manufacture of hybrid GM Volt, the transition to new-generation BMW X5, the BMW 3-Series, Kia Soul and the twins of Sonata/Optima from Hyundai-Kia. Nissan LEAF sales also remained sluggish, as the former is deprecated and battery capacity and charging time, while sales of the revised version with a battery capacity of 60 kWh only just begun.
In the second half of 2019 is expected to increase PEV sales to around 220 thousand, which in the end must give the annual rate of 370 thousand While the growth of the PEV segment in the first half of 2019 have been significant to sustain the pace last year in the second half of this will fail, since last year, Tesla was able to dramatically increase production by pre-orders in the country, and have not had a large-scale exports beyond the United States and Canada.

July exacerbated the advantage of Model 3

July 2019 for the American market PEV for the first time in quite a long period turned out to be worse than last year

In January-July electric vehicle No. 1, vol.E. Tesla Model 3 continued to put all his rivals on the blades, but it led to a further reduction of U.S. PEV market, including how electric vehicles (BEV) and plug-in hybrids (PHEV) 

Graph of cumulative PEV sales from 2010 to 2019, it also shows that in recent years serious only grows Tesla Model 3, not the competition 

In principle, analysts InsideEV evaluate the results of the July sales as fairly good, taking into account that in July, the majority of PEV sold only through Federal tax subsidies. The market share of PEV in July ranged from 1.9 to 2.0 percent, which is slightly less than a year ago

Here's how pale look selling competitor Tesla Model 3, which now actually does all the weather in the PEV market

In July of PEV sales in the U.S. declined compared with last year, which was bad news on the background of the continued success of previous years. However, selling 26 395 units (confirmed or estimated InsideEVs ) is also good. The reduction was only 10.8%

Chart global sales of Tesla is clearly seen as a growing export Model 3 turns out for her increasingly important, but total sales in 2019 will determine the implementation of this model at home  

The main reason for the downfall of the us PEV market in July was the Tesla Model 3, which in 2018 was sold in large quantities almost exclusively in North America, and now in large quantities was exported to Europe and China.
