Nordic EV Summit la ut dette på nytt
The sales of electric vehicles are increasing worldwide. Global EV sales reached 20% in the last quarter of 2023, and it’s not just a wealthy country story anymore according to Colin McKerracher at BloombergNEF. More than 30 countries reached the tipping point of mass adoption (with pure electric cars now above 5% of new-sales) last year. Among them Thailand, Turkey and Costa Rica. Guatemala 🇬🇹 however has just started their EV journey. Time and time again I experience how the push for EVs in many countries is very much dependent on individuals and organisations. It’s a case of a bottom up approach, as well as a top down strategy. A great example of this is here in Guatemala where AMEGUA is doing such a great job promoting EVs. They were also instrumental in the process leading up to the Government’s decision to remove import taxes on EVs. This has resulted in EV sales increasing from 83 in 2022 to 308 in 2023, with sales expected to grow even more in 2024. Thank you so much to Amegua, especially la Presidente Nancy Fabiola Chacon Calderon and la Directora Ejecutiva Thelma Solares for inviting me to speak at your third EV congress. I really enjoyed it 🇬🇹☀️🚙⚡️ Jaime Alberto Morales Juan Carlos Botran Briz Rocio Reyna Sergio Arevalo Gabriel Alejandro López Gramajo Norsk elbilforening #elbil #EV
