00:00Guys, I've talked a lot about how Nepal is now over 70% EV.
00:05Norway, of course, 98%.
00:06Sweden, 65%.
00:09Denmark has just hit 93% when it comes to private passenger cars, not commercial vehicles.
00:16However, one country I haven't mentioned for quite a while, I think the last time I spoke
00:20about Singapore might have been six to 12 months ago, a long time, is, well, I just
00:25said it, Singapore.
00:28And in Singapore, EV sales have now hit more than 62% in the month of April.
00:34For the first quarter of the year, the number was just under 60% in April.
00:38It hit an all-time record.
00:40So what are the best-selling cars then in Singapore?
00:42I mean, Singapore is obviously a pretty small country.
00:45There's about 5 million people.
00:46It's actually very hard to buy a car there.
00:48The taxes are enormous on cars because the government doesn't want too many cars on the
00:52roads just because it's a relatively small place.
00:55So let's have a look at the most important cars.
00:57When I first looked this up, one of the watchers on the channel, he sent me a link to his
01:01article,
01:02which had the EV sales figures from April showing more than 62% percentage, but it didn't have
01:09models.
01:10So I've done a bit more research to find out the most popular models in the month of April
01:14in Singapore.
01:16And the number one most popular cars, it's not separated, unfortunately, for some reason.
01:21It's a combination of the BWD 803 and the BWD SEAL.
01:25Those cars together, they had 45% market share.
01:3045%.
01:31That's 45% market share of the estimated 65% to 69%.
01:37So Gemini, I've done some research on there and Claude and all the AIs, I've looked at them all
01:43because they're all a bit confused.
01:45Singapore, their data is quite hard to find and to analyze.
01:50Anyway, it's between 65% to 69%.
01:53So of that, let's just go in the middle.
01:55Let's pick a middle number.
01:56Let's pick 67%.
01:57Of that, 45% of those were the BWD 803 or the BWD SEAL.
02:04So yeah, that's massive market share.
02:06On the Electric Viking website, I'll put a link in the description below.
02:10We have more articles about electric cars and battery technology than any other website
02:15that I'm aware of in the world.
02:17So check that out.
02:19Link is in the description.
02:21And there you'll find our videos and analysis and articles about everything going on in the
02:26EV world.
02:27Third place was the Model Y, Tesla Model Y.
02:30Now, this is the most or the least powerful Tesla Model Y in the world by a wide margin.
02:36It has half the power of the Model Y everywhere else in the world.
02:40Tesla have detuned it in order to fit into the category A spec.
02:43So it only has 110 kilowatt of power.
02:47That's not much power for a car that size.
02:49But anyway, they had to do that to comply with Singapore's rules, essentially.
02:54Fourth place is the MG S5 and the MG S5.
02:58They're kind of categorized together as well.
03:01And in fifth place was the Zika X and the Zika 009.
03:06Sixth place was the Xpeng G6.
03:09So actually, Xpeng sold more G6s than Zika sold Zika Xs or 009s because those sales numbers
03:16are put together.
03:17Actually, when you look at these sales numbers, it looks like the Xpeng G6 was in third place
03:22behind the Model Y.
03:23Then you would have, I don't know, some combination of the MG S5, MG4, and Zika X, combination of
03:30those three cars.
03:32So yeah, the top four best-selling EVs in Singapore, Tesla Model Y, Xpeng G6, BWD 803, and the
03:40BWD SEAL.
03:41Now, here's the funny thing, right?
03:43BWD, the 803 that they sell in Singapore, it has less than 100 kilowatt.
03:50So the global version has more than 100, I think it has 150 kilowatt, but they detune
03:56it to under 100 kilowatt in order for it to meet the category ACOE, meaning it essentially
04:03becomes, there's less tax put on it and it's much more affordable.
04:06So that's kind of interesting the way they do that.
04:09Now, one of the reasons why the Model Y is, well, sells well, one, Tesla detuned it to
04:13meet the correct category, the category A, but also it's got really good range.
04:18It's got 554 kilometers of range, which is not as much as the international long-range
04:24versions, but it's a lot of range in Singapore, as you can imagine.
04:28It's more than you'd need.
04:30So what body types are the most, well, the highest sellers in Singapore?
04:36It is SUVs.
04:37They have between, they have around 66% market share.
04:41So yeah, most cars are SUVs.
04:43But to be honest, we call all kinds of vehicles SUVs these days.
04:46They just have to look sort of like a little wagon and we'll call it an SUV.
04:51It's sort of changed the way we title that category.
04:54Wanted to do this video to let you guys know now that there is now many countries that have
05:00more than 60% EV market share.
05:03I think there's about six now.
05:05I reckon, give it another year or two, we might have a few.
05:08I mean, guys, included in that list is China.
05:12Now, for the first time ever, China's now above 60% as well.
05:15So what are your thoughts?
05:17Let me know.
05:17Let me know which countries you think next will get above that list, into that 60% plus list.
05:22Just pretty, pretty exclusive list, but I think it's going to be joined by a lot more countries
05:26soon.
05:26Bye-bye.

06:22In the first three months of this year, 2.8 million electric cars were sold.
06:292.8 million.
06:31Of all plug-in cars that were bought worldwide, including plug-in hybrids and E-Revs,
06:3870% were fully electric.
06:41Only 30% were either plug-in hybrids or extended range EVs.
06:46These are the top 20 best-selling cars in the world in March.
06:52The top 20 best-selling electric cars specifically.
06:55Interestingly, only three of the top 20 are legacy cars made by legacy brands.
07:02Two of them are from Toyota, although they're way down in the list, and one is from Kia.
07:08The other 17 are Chinese car brands and Tesla.
07:13Now, many people have celebrated the demise of Tesla, saying,
07:17yeah, these guys are no longer relevant.
07:19It's all over for them.
07:21If you actually look at these sales figures, you'll see that Tesla is still dominating the
07:26global EV landscape.
07:28Hello, my friends.
07:30Welcome to the channel.
07:31Great to have you with us.
07:32I'm Sam Evans.
07:32You're watching The Electric Viking.
07:34Let's get straight to it.
07:34This is the top 20 best-selling electric cars in March.
07:38And why not April?
07:40Well, we don't have numbers for April yet for the entire planet.
07:43It takes a while for this information to come through.
07:45Model Y, 118,531.
07:50You can see the Model Y outsold any other electric car model from any other car brand
07:57by nearly 90,000.
08:00It completely dominated, 118,530 sales.
08:04In second place was the Tesla Model 3 with 53,000.
