Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

As an Indonesian, I am kinda surprised to see at least like one or two EV each day in Jakarta and Surabaya, especially when EVs here are still considered expensive cars.

I am also surprised seeing more EVs than hybrid cars here

Montreal, Canada: I see at least one Model 3 or Model Y every time I go out, usually several. More often than not, I'll see an Ioniq or a Kona. Polestar, BMW i4, Mach-E are rarer, but not uncommon. Saw a Cybertruck for the first time a couple weeks ago. Most of the local Communauto (carsharing service) vehicles seem to be either Prius or Bolt.

Definitely an increase compared to a few years ago, or even just last year. Hope the trend continues.
