The change in the automotive industry continues at full speed. After companies such as Tesla have come to the fore and achieved success, giants that have been showing up in this field for years have started to keep up with the trend. In this context, while the market is getting electrified day by day, the best-selling electric cars of 2022 were also announced.
Best-selling electric cars
With the electrification of the automotive industry, we gradually started to say goodbye to internal combustion engines. CleanTechnica’s latest report confirms this. Because electric car sales increased by 38 percent in April 2022 compared to the same period of the previous year.
Despite factors such as the global chip and supply crisis, the pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war, 542 thousand new electric vehicle registrations were made in April. This corresponds to 10.2 percent of the total market. We can say that Tesla has come to the fore in CleanTechnica’s electric car sales covering the January-April 2022 period. Because the company sold 186 thousand 522 Model Y and 143 thousand 15 Model 3 in this four-month period. At the same time, related models found their place in the first two places on the bestseller list.
