More electric cars

 There is already a wide adoption of electric vehicle in europe, armerica  and other part of the world, but there are still much places that still find's it difficult to adopt wide use of EV. most people still consider them as just cars. This is surely an issue to address from early stage of adoption to encourage the wide spreed use of electric vehicles. There maybe different ways of approaching meaningful results, but the end goal matter's how much impact has been made. Below are some measures that can be implemented in wide adoption of electric cars in the transportation sector.

Deploying more EVs in the transport sector

Stringent government rules and regulations

 Stringent rules are certain to lead to rapid use of EVs. The European union is developing their next auto fuel emissions standards. While it's already the strictest in the world, there's a possibility of an outright ban of combustion engines in the future for the entire EU. China also has strict emissions regulations that are likely to get stricter. China has required automakeres to make a certain percentage of new-energy vehicles' which includes EVs, plug-in hybrids, and fuel cells. The U.S is up in line on whether the Democrats retain control of congress in the midterms and maintain the White House in 2024. The Europe and China have created the need for global automakers to invest in developing profitable electric vehicles.

Giving incentives

 For electric vehicles, growth can be driven by government incentives in the very near term. In Europe and China, COVID-19 stimulus packages also included incentives for consumers that would drive greater EV adoption. Many countries in Europe started giving incentives, tax rebates, and subsidies directly to the consumer. China had subsides in place already that were set to expire in 2020, But they extended that by two years. Governments were trying to stimulate the economy but also help boost EV sales.

Reduction in price

PEVs are on a path toward cost competitiveness with, and ultimately cost advantages over, traditional vehicles. PEVs are already much more cost effective to operate than comparable internal combustion vehicles. With that said, PEVs currently carry a premium sticker price which can keep potential PEV owners from making the switch from conventional vehicles. However, the total cost of ownership, which includes the sticker price and operational costs, is likely to decrease over time. The primary drivers of PEV cost will be economies of scale and R&D.

Expand Charging Infrastructure

 While cheaper and better batteries are crucial to making PEVs more price competitive, many industry experts see charging infrastructure as the key hurdle to the growth of this market. PEV infrastructure requires expensive investment, cooperation among a host of players, and time to expand before it can rival the universality of gas stations. Gas stations are located every few miles in urban and suburban areas, and even the remotest of towns has a gas station. Public PEV infrastructure is typically only located in large metropolitan areas. Home charging is sometimes infeasible, such as is the case for multi-family units. Further, PEVs have a shorter range than gas cars and will thus need a dense charging infrastructure that can accommodate both long and short distance travel. 

Encourage PEV Cabs

 Buying PEV cabs or retrofitting existing cabs is a distinct opportunity for large cities and their surrounding metropolitan areas. These urban areas are usually where charging infrastructure is first installed, since a critical mass of PEV customers is needed to justify the investment. Urban areas also tend to have the most taxi cabs in operation. Taxi cabs are high-mileage vehicles and thus produce more significant gas and emissions savings over the average residential vehicle when a standard taxi is replaced by a PEV. Taxis are also highly visible in the community and can offer riders a first glimpse into the PEV experience.

Educate Consumer Perception

 The upfront cost of PEVs and a lack of infrastructure are some real hurdles holding back the PEV market. Consumer perception of problems, however, also comes into play. Vehicle electrification requires consumers to operate within a new transportation framework. Consumers attuned to the status quo may overstate the hurdles of the transition into the new framework. For example, J.D. Power survey shows that consumers who were not willing to purchase a PEV cited higher upfront cost, driving range, availability of charging sites, increased maintenance costs, and lower vehicle performance as their primary motivations. Some of these are real challenges, while others are perceived. For example, electric vehicles actually have lower maintenance costs than conventional vehicles. A conventional vehicle motor has hundreds of moving parts, while an electric vehicle motor only has few moving parts.

Summing up

 Although there are other measures that can improve the rapid adoption in numbers of electric vehicles on the road, these are just few measures that can be implemented on deploying more electric cars. For the sack of this articles these few measures are being consider as they may bring significant impacts in adoption. Nevertheless strategies in gaining wide adoption of EVs should be deploy to enable meet the 2050 net zero emission scenario. More drastic measures maybe taken to ensure rapid adoption on reaching the end goal, within the estimated time given.
