The car market continues to down drop, as the winter months are coming in and expenses are bound to go up. The decrease in October presented a 24% year-over-year result. But we want to touch on the most successful vehicle model, taking the first place for consecutive months.
Ever since July, Kia Niro EV has held the number one spot for most EVs sold in the Netherlands. In July, that number was 762, while in October, it was a little lower at 658. Kia Niro EV is a compact SUV of 4,375 mm in length and 1,570 mm in height. It offers about 370 km (230 mi) of range, 200 horsepower and a variety of features.
Tesla has owned most of the markets in Europe, but it is a question of whether it will be able to bounce back from the 9th spot in the Netherlands. The Korean brand is definitely the most prominent one, and one of the reasons for that has got to be a price of around 42,000 € for a new model, and under 40,000 € for a used one.
