Pictured: Wuling Binguo EV, one of the EV car I most often see in Jakarta and Surabaya, Indonesia. I also am beginning to see BYD EV cars in Jakarta too

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

    In Vancouver it’s not uncommon to literally see 5 Tesla’s stopped at an intersection during a light change. Other EVs are also quite common as part of normal traffic, though EVs overall are not quite the majority yet.
