In the realm of electric vehicles (EVs), August 2024 saw a significant shift in the global market. The Tesla Model Y continued to lead the pack, delivering 99,290 units and maintaining its position as the top-selling EV globally [1].
Registrations of EVs climbed 19% year on year in August, reaching approximately one million units [10]. This surge was driven in part by the Chinese market, where the demand for plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and extended-range electric vehicles (EREV) saw a 51% increase, accounting for half a million models [11]. Battery-electric vehicle (BEV) deliveries also rose by 6% compared to August 2023 [11].
The Chinese market had a considerable influence on these trends. Brands like BYD placed 11 models in the top 20 of the global EV market in August [9]. The Wuling Mini EV, the best-selling non-Tesla and non-BYD EV, recorded 26,464 units [7]. The Wuling Bingo, on the other hand, delivered 22,323 units, placing it ahead of the BYD Dolphin [8].
The Aito M9 finished in 16th place, overcoming rivals from Li Auto and the BYD Han [6]. Meanwhile, the Li Auto L6 joined the top 20 with 88,963 deliveries [5]. It is expected to jump several positions across the rest of the year. The Tesla Model 3 ended August in fourth place with 44,413 registrations [1].
Other strong-selling EVs or brands behind Tesla include models from Ford (especially the F-Series and electric variants), Chevrolet (Equinox EV), and Volkswagen, with increasing EV and hybrid sales [1][2]. However, the exact rank order for the top 5 EV models globally (after the Model Y) in October 2024 is not explicitly listed in the available data.
The Galaxy E5, a new entrant, recorded 12,227 deliveries in its first full month in the market [3]. Its specs are capable of competing with the BYD Yuan Plus (Atto 3) [2]. Despite growing sales, brands like Rivian and VinFast have smaller volumes compared to Tesla and legacy automakers [2].
Toyota holds a significant market share in alternative powertrain vehicles, including hybrids, although it is less clear if specific EV models rank in the top 5 globally behind the Model Y [2][4].
In the segmented market, only four A and B-segment models are in the top 20, while five EVs from the E and F segments are present [4]. This shift towards larger vehicles suggests a growing interest in spacious and powerful EV options.
For the exact global top 5 EV models by sales for October 2024, more specific and updated international sales data would be required beyond these sources.
| Position | Model/Brand | Notes | |----------|----------------------|-----------------------------------------------| | 1 | Tesla Model Y | Leading global EV sales | | 2-5 | Likely Ford, Chevrolet, Volkswagen EVs | Based on strong U.S. sales and market trends | | Others | Toyota, Rivian, VinFast | Growing but less clear global top 5 ranking |
In the evolving global EV market, the increasing popularity of China-manufactured EVs has significantly influenced the rankings. Battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) from brands like BYD, Wuling, Aito, and Li Auto climbed the charts in August 2024, staking their claim against technology pioneers like Tesla, Ford, Chevrolet, and Volkswagen in the electric-vehicle lifestyle sector. However, the exact ranking of the top 5 EV models globally for October 2024 remains uncertain, with more specific and updated data needed to confirm the positions of brands like Tesla, Ford, Chevrolet, Volkswagen, Toyota, Rivian, and VinFast in the electric-vehicle market.
