There are of course and other companies which had positive impact on the hybrid-cars sales like Chevrolet. This July can be called a memorable month for green cars thanks to the 48% surge, mostly on Tesla vehicles, but we need to not forget also about Chevy Volt, BMW i3, Ford Fusion Energi and Chevy Spark EV.

There are many signs already that U.S. new vehicle market has slowed down, at the end of July the reports have showed that the industry reached the strongest selling rate. Within July, sales were 1.1% ahead of last year's record pace.
