Thanks to a significant market recovery in China, Volkswagen has reported doubling deliveries of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) in Q3-2021, despite semiconductor shortages, writes ILM.
Deliveries were up to 122,100 in the third quarter, 109% up on 2020, with the share of total global deliveries rising to more than 6% for BEVs in the period.
The group saw 28,900 BEVs delivered to China in Q3, up from a total of 18,300 for the first half of the year.
Europe led the share of BEV deliveries by region for the year so far with 72%, while the U.S. sits at 9% of its global deliveries.
The top five BEV models in the nine-month period were:
• Volkswagen ID.4 with 72,700 units
• Volkswagen ID.3 with 52,700 units
• Audi e-tron (incl. Sportback) with 36,100 units

We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
