Volkswagen Passenger Cars delivered more electric vehicles worldwide than ever before, handing over more than 212,000 electric cars in total (+158 percent versus 2019), including nearly 134,000 battery electric vehicles (+197 percent versus 2019).The German brand launched nine new electric and plug-in hybrid models in 2020. This brought the share of BEV and hybrid vehicles in Europe up to 12.4 percent of the brand’s total deliveries – after 2.3 percent in 2019. The most popular model was the ID.3 with 56,500 units sold – even though this only came on the market in September – followed by the e-Golf with around 41,300 units and the Passat GTE with approximately 24,000 units.Some 68,800 units of the ID.3 were ordered in 2020 and more than 56,500 have already been delivered to customers – including to some 14,400 customers in Germany.  In fact, the ID.3 was the most frequently delivered and the top-selling BEV in many European countries.Following closely on the heels of the ID.3, Volkswagen’s second all-electric model, the ID.4is being successively launched in many international markets. It is the brand’s first all-electric world car and as an SUV is also right in line with customer trends. Volkswagen says the ID.4 and other plug-in hybrids will provide an additional boost in 2021.
