Accelerating Electric Vehicle Adoption in Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia has been a laggard in terms of adopting electric vehicles. Being home to 700 million people (almost equal to the population of Europe) and with a rapidly increasing motorization rate, the region needs to do more and join the electrification trend.

In this whitepaper, we underline the importance of clean mobility and show that Southeast Asia is at an inflection point in electric vehicle adoption. Then, we identify and analyze the key factors required to increase the penetration of electric vehicles. We end by showing what actions stakeholders need to take to shape the trend.
