Tusker's ten most popular cars of 2021 were electric or hybrid

Tusker has revealed its ten most popular vehicle orders of 2021, with all of them being either electric or hybrid.

For the second year running, electric vehicles have remained the most popular choice for those choosing a new vehicle as part of Tusker’s salary sacrifice car benefits scheme.
 
The ten most popular cars were:
 
Audi Q4 e-tron
BMW iX3
Hyundai IONIQ 5 electric
Kia Niro
Mercedes-Benz A Class (PHEV)
Mercedes-Benz EQC
Nissan Leaf
Peugeot e2008
Tesla Model 3
Volkswagen ID3
 
As more Electric Vehicles become available, Tusker’s order book has shifted away from traditional petrol and diesel vehicles to EV and Ultra Low Emission Vehicles in just two years. In 2019, nine out of ten of the most popular vehicles were petrol or diesel powered, with only one EV making the list, however by 2021 the reverse is now true.
 
“The shift in ordering behaviour away from petrol and diesel-powered vehicles, towards EVs has been rapid, and conclusive. We are proud to offer a product that makes electric driving affordable for the mass market.” said Paul Gilshan, CEO of Tusker.
 
“We have seen the rise in uptake of salary sacrifice schemes, alongside the continuation of low BIK rates that encourage drivers away from traditional fuel types, and into affordable and environmentally friendly vehicles,” he added.
 
As a result of this change in buying habits, Tusker has lowered its average order emissions from 107.9g/Km, to just 36.6g/Km in just two years and is well on its way to achieving a zero emission fleet by 2030.
