The Volkswagen Group s electric car renaissance is off to a strong start in the United States with the arrival of the 2021 Volkswagen ID.4 and other EV models from the automaker s luxury Audi and Porsche brands. The VW brand posted its best US sales figures since 1973, and the Porsche Taycan nearly outsold the iconic 911. With an influx of new models, the VW Group has more than doubled its global EV sales from 64,462 to 170,939 units in the first half of 2021.
A whopping 74.9% (128,078 vehicles) of these deliveries were in Europe, where VW Group leads with a 26% EV market share. Another 10.8% of deliveries were in the US, where the group delivered 18,514 vehicles. China was surprisingly smaller than the European and US markets, with 18,285 vehicles (10.7%). VW hopes to increase its sales in China with the three-row ID.6, built specifically for that market.
