PETALING JAYA: While the fuel subsidy rationalisation may have sparked more interest in electric vehicles (EVs), the switch will require more than just cost savings incentives, say EV enthusiasts and experts.
Malaysian EV Owners Club president Datuk Shahrol Azral Ibrahim Halmi said that while the recent announcement of lower road tax for EVs and higher diesel prices are factors favouring EVs, some car owners are still reluctant to opt for EVs over the internal combustion engine such as petrol engines.
