"Registrations were down 23% in May, a slight recovery from the 30% drop in April, while the YTD numbers are now down 14% regarding the same period last year, with 718.000 registrations. If in isolation these numbers aren't exactly positive, comparing with the overall automotive market, numbers are even worse than in the plugin niche, with sales down 33% in May and 30% this year, because of this, May's PEV share repeated April's result (2,8%),keeping the 2020 plugin share at 2,7%,which is already above the 2,5% of last year.The future will depend much on the development of the pandemic and the gravity that the subsequent economic crisis, but expect plugins to weather the storm better than the overall market, increasing its PEV share on the way.In May, BEVs dropped faster than plugin hybrids (-28% for BEVs, -9% for PHEVs), but despite that, the BEV/PHEV breakdown remained stable at 67% BEV, 33% PHEV."
