Plus, I remember seeing a video years ago from some electric car visionary (didn't went very far) that argued Israel is basically an island. In the west there is a sea and in the north/east/south there are hostile nations/deserts that you don't want to drive to.
Compared to most other nations it's easy to bootstrap an electric driving infrastructure in Israel, because you don't have to do a continental wide rollout.

They burned through about a billion dollars and never did more than a few demos and a few hundred Renaults driven by their employees. But he was really good at getting close to heads of state and issuing press releases. The whole battery swap thing was a bet against batteries and charging technology getting better.
