Volkswagen's ID.3 Triumphs European EV Sales in October
"Nevertheless, what came in as a major shock was that the red-hot EV maker, Tesla, was nowhere in the radar of Europe’s Top 10 EVs for the month in discussion."
"Notably, the Volkswagen’s ID.3 hatchback, which hit the markets only in September, registered sale of 10,475 units in October, narrowly surpassing the second best Renault SA’s RNLSY Zoe subcompact by approximately 700 units and massively defeating Tesla’s TSLA 834 Model 3 sedans sold. ID.3 even emerged as the best-selling car overall in Norway, The Netherlands and Ireland, capturing more than 19% of the overall market share in Norway."

Once the initial orders that people have been waiting for for years are filled, we'll see true sales numbers.
Of course howard knows this, but he's run out of technical arguments why he hates his Tesla, so he's resorted to this.
“and massively defeating Tesla’s TSLA 834 Model 3 sedans sold.”
Tesla was not in the top 10 in EV sales in Europe.
We'll have to see what the quarterly numbers will look like. Here's to cleaner air.
Are you getting your facts from tabloids?

Was there another October 2020 to use?

Nope I read it. Volkswagon sold 10475 cars in September and October and reported all the sales in October. I am curios how many were pre-sales. Let’s see, Tesla sold 16125 cars in September and 900 in October. I guess because Volkswagon reported all their sales in October they win over Tesla’s 900 in October.
And what does Forbes say about the ID.3 vs Tesla?
“It is well known on The Street that Tesla manages their business based on quarterly results , and everyone knows Elon and co. maximize quarterly deliveries by gearing up the Tesla marketing machine in the last month of any given quarter. This is obvious. “
So yes 2 months of ID.3 sales beat Tesla’s October sales. But all ID.3 sales to date have not surpassed Tesla M3 sales for the same time period.
And shortly the refreshed M3 and Model Y will arrive in Europe which is likely what most folks are waiting for.
Your micro picking statistics so they fit your needs.

So dense. Does not mean your opinion that they are what most folks are waiting for is remotely true. Is it?

I see my opinion that it’s likely means nothing because your opinion is likely not. But my opinion came from the information in a Forbes article and yours came from.... a box of crackerjacks?
If you want to argue October, fine its not worth my time. I will say it, “The ID.3 outsold Tesla’s M3 in Europe, in October.” But that fact doesn’t matter because In the same time period (September to Today) the Tesla M3 still out sold the ID.3 in Europe. But you cling to October if it helps your emotional state.
