Also in the Middle East, the number of electric vehicles is increasing every year. Sustainable transport becomes more and more important, especially with regards to the sustainable development goals the region set. New initiatives for sustainable transport, which are also reflected by high investments into EV infrastructure and manufacturing, are endorsed and fostered by the local governments.
