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

    Yep. I’d be surprised if it wasn’t more than that in my region. I was the only person I knew with one 5 years ago. Now they are everywhere, and I see 10+ daily in my local streets ignoring mine and my neighbours.
