Electric cars just had their best month ever in the UK (28%, near 100,000 EVs sold)... and Spain (18%) and Taiwan (19%) and Switzerland (35%) and Belgium (50%) and Denmark (88%) (!) and Norway (98%) and France (41%) and Portugal (48%) and probably more to follow when numbers arrive :D ⚡️

Over the last 12 months though, Tesla is not number one. Skoda is, just ahead of Tesla. Model Y is the best selling BEV, but Elroq and Enyaq together beat it. HEV have peaked in Switzerland too, so the ICE -> HEV -> PHEV -> BEV process is moving along here as well.

Vans are the laggard in Switzerland. 17.4% BEV over the last 12 months. That's less than cars (26.5%), heavy trucks and buses (more on that to come). It's moving though: a year ago vans were at 12.7%. But over 70% of new vans are still diesel, so there's a long way to go.

Tesla's 3Q EV sales beat estimates - by running down inventory again. Same as the prior quarter. If you want to understand what that does to Tesla's results, here are the two columns I wrote on it this summer. First: deliveries (1/2) @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Tesla’s EV Sales Still Matter, Despite the AI and Robots Noise
Now that Ford Motor Co. is an artificial intelligence-enabler, its vehicle sales figures are irrelevant. I’m joking, obviously. With Tesla Inc., I’m only half-joking.

‘Laddfattigdom' or 'charging poverty’ In Sweden, too, there is growing awareness of the inequality between those who can charge their EV at home (low costs, reliability, time savings) and those who are dependent on public charging infrastructure www.di.se/nyheter/det-...
Five dimensions of energy poverty
    • Financial aspect: Significant price differences between home charging and public charging hit those without their own charging point particularly hard.
    • Spatial (geographical) dimension: The charging infrastructure is unevenly distributed and is often rolled out in areas where early adopters and affluent residents live, rather than in line with future needs.
    • Functional dimension: Faulty charging points, limited operating hours and long waiting times for grid connection cause operational problems.
    • Temporal dimension (time): Time lost in queues, detours to find charging points and slow charging result in wasted time and stress.
    • Digital dimension: The need for brand-specific apps, poor roaming coverage and complicated payment systems that do not support card payments are excluding users.

If that were the case and 2035 regulations would be an "academic" matter, how to explain that carmakers lobby so hard against them? Surely they don't have time to waste on matters that are purely academic and inconsequential for them?

This is a great example of muddled / opportunistic arguments on the EU ICE phaseout Some argue against a 2035 phaseout target *because demand for EVs is too low* to possibly be able to reach that Some argue against a 2035 phaseout target *because demand is high enough to meet them even without*

China car exports to Europe severely underestimated, warns UBS
According to UBS, nearly twice as many China-made automobiles are being shipped to Europe as are being registered there, partly because trucking shortages delay deliveries from ports to dealers. The gap adds a new wrinkle in the battle for Europe between US and Chinese carmakers. Meanwhile, the vote on EU-wide approval of Tesla's supervised Full Self-Driving (FSD) system is unlikely before December 2026. Even as US and Chinese automakers face short-term challenges in their push in Europe, they continue to put ever-intensifying pressure on Europ...
