Electric Cars 2018: Top Producers

Our Electric Cars 2018 list looks at Asia, North America and Europe

Electric Cars 2018: An industry disrupted

The 21st century is all about disruption. Not surprisingly, the auto industry is no exception. Our Electric Cars 2018 list breaks down the industry’s major players.

With China leading the way, plug-in vehicle sales records are regularly broken. North America and Europe are steadily catching up, but the Asian superpower has a clear lead.

In the wake of such rampant change, we’ve decided to let you know who the major players are.

Without further ado, our Electric Cars 2018 list.

You’ll find 3 offerings. One from each of the world’s largest markets. Asia, North America and Europe.

The Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance offers the Nissan Leaf, among other EVs

Europe: Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance

Regrettably, the European Union relies on Russian gas to fuel its automotive industry. As a result, electrifying its motorways could improve the region’s energy situation.

Leading the domestic charge is the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance, which originally formed in 1999. The Nissan Leaf is the current global leader in units sold per month.

Ultimately, the merger is a tool to increase shareholder value and EV market share. So far, it’s working.

Tesla’s size is expected to grow rapidly

North America: Tesla

The continent’s flagship EV producer is also its most successful. The Model 3 laps the pack in monthly EV sales, and over half of overall sales run through Tesla’s factories.

With its gigafactory set for completion within the next few years, Mr. Musk’s early start has benefited the firm immensely.

Competition for the American behemoth is growing, but nowhere near fierce. Furthermore, Tesla sits very close to the United States’ largest lithium reserve in Nevada. As companies and countries lobby for lithium projects, Tesla is well positioned as lithium demand intensifies.

BYD leads an impressive Chinese EV push

Asia: BYD (Build Your Dreams)

We finish with a Chinese Titan. While China is home to many producers, we chose BYD because the private company has ascended the auto ranks remarkably fast.

That and Warren Buffett invested $230 million USD in BYD’s parent company. He owns a 10% stake.

On top of this, BYD sold the most EVs in the world in 2017.
