[SINGAPORE] About one-third of car owners in Singapore currently own an electric or hybrid vehicle, and nearly two-thirds of Singaporeans agree that governments should set deadlines to phase out internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. These figures, from the latest study conducted by global automotive distributor Inchcape, put the city-state at the forefront of South-east Asia’s and the wider Asia-Pacific region’s electric vehicle (EV) transition. Inchcape surveyed nearly 3,600 respondents across seven markets – Hong Kong, the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore and Australia. The survey also revealed that awareness of the different types of new energy vehicles (NEVs), which include battery EVs, plug-in hybrids and hybrids, was the highest in Singapore compared with other Asia-Pacific markets surveyed.   https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/international/asean/singapore-ranks-high-adoption-new-energy-vehicles-south-east-asia-study (ICE SINGAPORE)
