Why is this so important to you?
I mean it's great that EVs are selling but I doubt crowing about it on a forum for ev users will do much to persuade more drivers into EVs.

 

Why is asking why something is so important to someone so important to you? I mean it's great that we all have the freedom to post more or less whatever we want, but if you're not interested in a subject, maybe it's better just not to post rather than belittle someone else's interest.

 

Haterz gonna hate...

I suspect a lot of people who are getting a Model 3 probably didn't have a saloon before it and many buyers didn't drive a premium brand. For a high percentage I suspect the saloon aspect of the car is a compromise for the other benefits vs (say) a Nissan Leaf.

With BIK change, from Q1 we may see more Model 3 go to company car drivers which could shift sales from other premium brands more. 2020 will be interesting!

 

Proddick is right, it will be the sales for delivery to company car drivers early this year and whether there is a drop in the ice alternatives that will be really interesting, but that data isn't yet available. The data that is available reflects 3 years of pent up demand, will it continue or soften, I'd bet on it continuing as I expect the bik changes to really help Tesla (most as they actually have cars to sell) and all other bev manufacturers to a lesser extent(although they'll probably sell all 10 that they make). I base this on what I'm observing at work, for example my bosses boss has an etron coming soon, he chose an ev due to the tax advantages after quizzing me thoroughly about my Kona. He was actually very close to choosing a model3 performance but decided he liked the etron more (currently he has an A6 estate I think he just felt more comfortable sticking with audi).
