Correct, I wasn't, until I read your response and looked them up.

claim.  Rather suspiciously, the sales numbers I found end in even zeroes 
for every month.)

Assuming that's accurate, I have to admit, it's pretty impressive.  

Comparing those sales to those of a few mainstream ICE sedans:

18% fewer than 87,912 Toyota Corollas 
35% fewer than 111,006 Toyota Camrys
29% fewer than 101,244 Honda Civics 
29% fewer than 100,814 Honda Accords
112% more than 34,005 Hyundai Sonatas

... to a couple of other "green" vehicles:

148% more than 29,060 Toyota Prii
1,270% more than 5,261 Nissan Leaves

... and to a "brown" vehicle:

76% fewer than 298,288 Ford F-series pickups
