That's good right? Incentivizing EV adoption by the trend setters
- seanmcdirmid 8y agoI mean, it isn’t bad. Government policies are pushing people this way, even if most of the, still lack actual parking spots for their cars where they could charge at home. Honestly, I don’t know how they do it, 70% of the parking in Beijing is on street (usually illegally). Perhaps the Model S crowd can afford parking spots, which is why you don’t see a lot of BYD EVs that aren’t fleet.

Yes infrastructure in most places needs to catch up but even so, having taxi and bus fleets transform to EV is nothing to be sneezed at in any city. Taxis (bith standard and Uber varieties) may often form 10% of vehicles in cities (eg. where I live in Singapore) and disproportionately contribute to miles driven and hence emissions and smoke. Having all of those transform to EV is a very good thing.
