North America - 128.000 units in 2016, 550.000 stock.

The three markets combined (USA, Canada and Mexico) picture is almost the same as the US EV market, given the size of this last one, but there are small nuances, the EV market share drops slightly to 0.8%, while the difference between the first two (Tesla Model S and Chevrolet Volt) is smaller, due to the Canadian love for the plug-in hybrid Chevy.

2016 Ranking:

Tesla Model S - 22k
Chevrolet Volt - 21k
Tesla Model X - 14k


Europe - 170.000 units in 2016, 586.000 stock
