Electric Car Sales Increased 42% Globally In Q1 2016 | CleanTechnica
Global electric vehicle sales figures for Quarter 1 2016 were recently released by EV-Volumes (along
with preliminary figures for April), revealing that plug-in sales in 2016 to date totaled 180,500 units. That’s a roughly 42% year-on-year increase as compared to the same period of time in 2015.

The above figures, it should be noted, are with regard to all-electrics (EVs), plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), and also light-commercial electric vehicles.
