In this month of mixed signals, the monthly top 10 BEV chart shows one clear winner in a sea of underwhelming results. At a very wide distance, the tiny Smart ForTwo followed in second place, with 471 registrations, fewer than half the numbers of the Model Y. The Fiat 500e completed the podium with a lackluster 396 registrations, very far from its previous peaks and in line with recent months’ dull performances.
