Market share of Tesla cars in the Netherlands 2012-2020
Sales volume decrease
Tesla sells four different models in the Netherlands, the Tesla Model S, Model X, Model 3, and the Model Y. The Tesla Model S had, despite a slight decrease in 2016, a steady annual increase up until 2018. Model X sales were at their peak in 2018, with 3,000 vehicles sold.
Tesla still in the lead
The Tesla Model 3 was the leading fully electric passenger car model in the Netherlands as of December 2020, with a total of over 38,000 registered units. As Tesla cars generally cost more than 50,000 euros, the new tax rules regarding electric cars surpassing that value, adopted in January 2019, has shown to severely affect Tesla's sales volume in the country.
