Ferrari says Luce orders already cover planned 2027 sales
By Eve
Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna said on 3 November, as the company presented its third quarter results, that orders for the fully electric Luce already cover the volumes it plans to sell in 2027, according to Reuters. First customer deliveries are scheduled for the end of 2026, and Vigna said test drives planned for 2027 could generate further demand. Ferrari has not disclosed Luce sales targets and aims for fully electric models to make up 20 percent of its range by 2030.
Why it matters
It suggests demand for ultra premium EVs is holding, and Ferrari's plan for electric models to reach 20 percent of its range by 2030 points to more high specification vehicles arriving over time. With no volume figures disclosed, the near term effect on charging demand is hard to size, but owners of such vehicles are likely to expect premium home and destination charging.

Vauxhall passes 100,000 UK battery electric vehicle sales
Vauxhall has sold 102,852 electric vehicles in the UK as of October 2026, with the 100,000th sale a Grandland Electric 213PS Ultimate delivered by Drive Vauxhall Nuneaton. The brand reached 10,000 EV sales in 2021 and 50,000 in 2023, a tenfold rise in customer demand, and the Mokka Electric (more than 26,000 sales) and Corsa Electric (more than 23,000) lead its range of eight electric models. The figures come from Vauxhall's milestone announcement, which also cites its 2023 Electric Streets of Britain campaign inviting drivers to register the need for on-street charging.
Why it matters
A mass-market brand with over 100,000 UK EVs on the road points to a growing base of drivers, many in mainstream segments, who will need public and on-street charging. For CPOs and local authority procurement teams, the Electric Streets of Britain campaign is a signal of registered demand for on-street provision.
Mercedes-Benz India launches electric GLC from ₹78.5 lakh with over 1,000 bookings
Mercedes-Benz India has launched the electric GLC at an introductory ex-showroom price of ₹78.5 lakh, with more than 1,000 bookings taking its order book through March 2027. CEO Santosh Iyer said at the Pune launch that the company is seeking more assembly kits from its global leadership to raise local production and shorten waiting periods. The bookings carry an indicative retail value of over ₹785 crore including taxes, which is subject to final pricing and conversion into deliveries rather than recognised revenue.
Why it matters
A sold out luxury EV order book into 2027 points to a growing base of high income buyers in India who will expect reliable home and destination charging.

Renault CEO warns European car output could halve after 2030 without EU action on Chinese competition
Renault chief executive François Provost told journalists in London, as reported by Reuters, that vehicle production in Europe could fall to half its historical average shortly after 2030 if the EU does not act to protect it. He cited a cost gap, saying Chinese manufacturers can import vehicles into Europe with costs 30% to 40% lower than European industrial players, a difference he considers impossible to close under current conditions. He is calling for measures to safeguard factories and jobs, with hundreds of thousands of roles across plants and suppliers at stake.
Why it matters
Pressure for EU trade or local content measures could reshape the supply of vehicles and components that charging demand forecasts depend on, and shift the mix between European and Chinese EV brands on the road. CPOs and procurement teams should watch how policy outcomes affect fleet electrification timelines, vehicle pricing and the sourcing of charging hardware.
