Enthusiasm for electric vehicles is rocketing, yet charging remains a pain point for owners and a persistent barrier for those interested. How can manufacturers, governments, and utility services co-create practical solutions to address this challenge and galvanise a mass shift towards EVs?

Ridepanda is the first platform of its kind – a one-stop e-ride shop that helps people find the right electric vehicle for their needs. Based in the US, the brand’s early success reflects a burgeoning interest in sustainable, safe, and long-term forms of alternative transport.

There’s high interest in the promotion of electric vehicles in India as a means to tackle high fuel rates and ever worsening air pollution. But with limited infrastructure to support adoption, brands such as Tork Motors can work to lead the charge toward greener transport.

The uptake of electric vehicles has boomed since they made their debut in the early 2010s. But with the price point of EVs and entrenched habits proving a barrier to usage, German start-up &Charge is using the loyalty scheme model to make climate change a frictionless part of daily life.
