June has come and gone, but not without providing us with some insights on the ever-changing car market.
First, lets talk about fuel.
So lets call stinky petrol cars the unfortunate overall winners of last month.
Their stinky counterparts, however, didnt do so well.
40% off TNW Conference!
Sales of electric vehicles surpassed19,800 units, which means 10.6% of new cars sold last month were electric.
Well done, Brits!
The UKs top 10 best-selling cars
What about individual models?
Can we also see the trend towards electrification there?
The best-selling car in June was, in fact, an EV!
The Tesla Model 3 dominated sales with a total of5,468 units sold.
Suck it, Earth-destroyers.
And thats not the only good news.
A couple of hybrids also made it to the list (yay?
), with Toyota Yaris in seventh place and the BMW 3 series in ninth.
Although, same as with the Corsa, the BMW 3 series numbers likely include its stinkier personas.
Do ebikes get your wheels spinning?
Do self-driving cars get you all charged up?
