As part of its mission to increase the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in Nigeria, SAGLEV Electro Mobility Company recently unveiled new EV charging points for users in Lagos at the rooftop of the multi-level car park of Mega Plaza Shopping Mall, Victoria Island.
The transition to electric mobility is progressing around the world at different rates. Norway is of course the leader when it comes to electric car market share of new vehicle sales. China is the leader when it comes to sales volumes of electric cars as well as electric buses. In Africa, the transition to electric has often been described as potentially similar to the mobile phone revolution in that it could lead to a leapfrog transition where most will jump straight to electric mobility, totally bypassing the internal combustion age.
