Volkswagen Group supplies 165 percent more electric vehicles in a year
In the first half of 2021, all Volkswagen brands have delivered 170,939 fully electric vehicles worldwide. That is more than double from a year earlier, when 64,462 fully electric vehicles were delivered.
The large doubling is mainly due to the fact that many more vehicles were delivered in the second quarter, it appears the figures of the Volkswagen Group. In the second quarter of 2021, 110,991 BEVs were delivered, almost double the first and second quarter of 2020 combined.
Of all markets, the European market remains the most important for the company. Almost three-quarters of all fully electric vehicles delivered have been delivered in Europe. More than eighteen thousand vehicles have been delivered in both the US and China, while six thousand BEVs have been delivered in the rest of the world.
The figures cover trucks, vans and passenger cars, although the share of passenger cars remains by far the largest. For example, in the first six months of 2021, 450 MAN vehicles were sold and 1164 vehicles from Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles.
The Volkswagen brand also remains the largest brand among passenger cars. In the first six months, 92,859 electric Volkswagen cars were sold; more than all other Volkswagen brands combined. Within passenger cars, the largest growth came from Porsche. In 2020, this still involved 4,480 cars, a year later 19,822 electric Porsches were delivered: 342.5 percent more.
Volkswagen says that the number of deliveries has grown because Volkswagen has started to offer more car models. The company promises to announce even more fully electric cars this year and therefore expects the number of cars delivered to increase even further. The most popular model was the Volkswagen ID.4, followed by the ID.3, the Audi e-tron models, the Porsche Taycan models and the Volkswagen e-up!.
