Plug-in Chevy vehicle dominance in DFW

I received this email from the Vice-President of Classic Chevrolet, Bently Durant:

“Buzz, I sent this to the sales managers today, but I wanted to personally commend as the guy with the biggest influence on EV sales. This year Classic has captured 100% of the EV sales in most zip codes in DFW! The graph is EV’s.

Here are the take-aways:
· Our home zip code customers are still buying the majority of their Chevy’s from Classic.
· We dominate our home territory in Silverado
· We need to keep pushing on cars.
· We have EV Market Share domination, not just locally, but regionally.

Here’s the graph he mentioned:Plug-in dominationThe underlying map is the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex. The diameter of the circles on the map represent the number of plug-in vehicle sales for a zip code. The blue portions of each circle represent Classic Chevrolet’s percentage of those sales. The non-blue pie segments represent 5 other entities: our four primary Chevrolet competitor dealerships + all other Chevy dealerships in the area. The red star is where Classic is located.

It appears Classic’s investment in Electric Avenue is paying off.

About the author

An accidental EVangelist: On my way to work at Apple one morning, my car was rear-ended (and totaled) by an SUV, driven by a guy playing with his smartphone.
This led me to get my first plug-in vehicle.
I started blogging about my experiences immediately.
A year later, in 2013, I was hired by the dealership as their "EVangelist."
I became a board member with the Texas Electric Transportation Resources Alliance (www.TxETRA.org) and perform public speaking in the DFW area regarding electric vehicles and environmental issues.
I also teach others how to sell plug-in vehicles or manage EV sales.
I'm on a mission.

  1. “We have EV Market Share domination, not just locally, but regionally.“

    I would guess in the whole state, and maybe anywhere in the country outside of the ZEV states.

    Who else could compete with the mighty Buzz Smith?
