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

        Yes. I live in a wealthier area in a city and I see many EV’s… but in terms of our national fleet they’re almost a rounding error.

        Yet just over the ditch to Australia and the place is teeming with them.
