Plug-in electric passenger car registrations in the Netherlands more than doubled year-over-year in June to 8,821, which is a surprisingly good result at this point of the year.

That's about 26% of the total market, and all-electric cars held an 18% share - much higher than plug-in hybrids.

If the volume continues to increase in the second part of the year, as it usually did in the previous years, it should be a good year.

It's a little bit of surprise that the Tesla Model 3 in its usual volume month (the third month of a quarter) did not surge higher, but instead is behind the Ford Mustang Mach-E. June was probably one of the best months for Tesla in Europe anyway, so let's not draw too far reaching conclusions.

In the year-to-date comparison, things look a bit different:
