Record month for PEV's in Germany:

The PEV Fever has definitely caught on in Germany, with March signaling a record month, with over 6,700 registrations, a 52% increase YoY, with the PEV Share at 2%.

But more important than the Plug-in niche, are the seismic changes happening in the fuels mix of the mainstream market: Diesel sales continue to sink (-25%!) YoY, to the benefit of all other fuels, regular gasoline-powered cars are up 9%, while alternative fuels are jumping upwards, with the highlights being CNG (+519%, to 1,046 units), but PHEVs (+32%) and BEVs (+73%) are also increasing significantly, leaving diesel with a market share of only 31%, less than half of what regular gasoline cars have (64%). At this pace, Diesel sales will be dead in das diesel Vaterland by 2021-22...Would someone imagine this four years ago?
