Tesla Model 3 dominates Greek EV sales on Q1 2021

The Tesla Model 3 managed to take first place on Greek EV sales for the first quarter of 2021. In Greece sales of electric vehicles are still at an embryonic level and only last August the new government measures concerning the promotion of electric mobility were announced through brave incentives for electric cars, scooters and electric bicycles.

Thus, in the Greek market for Q1 in 2021 a total of 1297 pure electric and plug-in Hybrid models were sold and 578 cars were delivered in March. As far as pure electric cars are concerned, 282 models were sold in March, while a total of 419 pure electric cars were sold in Q1. This shows a satisfactory increase, since 679 BEVs were sold last year and as early as the second quarter in 2021 this figure is expected to be easily shot down.

According to Tesla’s standard practice, the last month of the quarter is the one where the company becomes the most important sales promotion. This is also reflected in Greece since the Model 3 in March alone sold 164 models where it was enough to put it in first place on the leaderboard with 168 units. It should also be noted that Tesla has been represented in Greece relatively recently since the first dealer officially opened last autumn.
