Do they mention how much of that EV growth is actually just government incentives making the numbers look better than they really are? Sometimes it seems like actual adoption in daily life isn't matching the hype or the stats.

Do you ever mention how cheap fossil fuels are heavily subsidized by your government?
Simon_787@reddit
They usually aren't even enough to counteract the massive subsidies we give to fossil fuels.
But it's okay because the younger generation has to pay for it, and most young people seem to be okay with it for whatever reason.

They should try hybrid vehicle first instead of going directly to EVs
etowntossup@reddit
Why?
Double the points of failure, still need engine maintenance and oil changes. It’s arguably easier to develop charging infrastructure than rely on petroleum deliveries. And gas is now a luxury thanks to the Iran conflict in some nations.
EV’s are far more reliable less maintenance and with newer chemistry the battery packs will outlive the chassis. They in turn can be swapped into something new or used as power storage.
Critical-Aspect-9379@reddit
Their power infrastructure might not be able to handle much load, also recycling infra is still very under developed in most countries
V8-Turbo-Hybrid@reddit
Kind surprised that electrified model sales in most third world increasing so quick, as their local people don't have high PCI and great charging grid.
boywiththethorn@reddit
We have L2 grid by default, charging is very easy with a standard plug.
ApprehensiveSize7662@reddit (OP)
Not really that surprising given their fuel situation
