The top selling electric van was the BYD T3, which registered 234 units in Q1. Shineray was in second place with 197 units. Toyota was in 3rd place with 121 units, Citroen in fourth place with 76 units, and Opel and DFSK were in joint fifth place with 56 units each.Electric buses also had an impressive quarter, with 52 electric buses sold in that period out of a total of 270 buses. That means an awesome 19.3% of all buses sold in Q1 were fully electric.
I hope this impressive showing in the electric van sector continues even after the reduction in incentives. There may be an initial drop in sales, but hopefully sales will pick up again quickly. It’s great to see commercial electric vehicles doing well in several markets around the world. In the United Kingdom, the SMMT says ownership of electric commercial vehicles has also risen, with vans up some 67.3% and buses and coaches increasing by 34.
