Volkswagen Group (OTC:VWAGY) sold more locally made electric vehicles in China last month than the delivery volumes clocked by key rivals Nio Inc (NYSE:NIO) and Li Auto Inc (NASDAQ:LI) -- but these numbers fell short of Xpeng Inc’s (NYSE:XPEV) pole position. 

What Happened: The German automaker said it sold 14,100 units in November.

The other models in the lineup include the compact sports utility electric vehicle ID.4 and the large, seven-seat electric SUV ID.6.

Why It Matters: China is a key market for Volkswagen, where it aims to sell up to 100,000 ID. series electric vehicles this year and has much catching up to do to meet that target.

The German legacy automaker sold 1.85 million vehicles in the country during the first half of 2021, making China its single largest market with a 37% share of total volumes.

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) China monthly delivery numbers, which are reported by third parties, aren't yet known.

Price Action: VWAGY shares closed 4.63% higher at $29.14 a share on Wednesday.
