    If Toyota or Mitsubishi will release a cheap electric vehicle here, more folks will switch to electric. Vehicle brand loyalty here is high. Many Filipinos buy Toyota or Mitsubishi.

    Creating public chargers will be so pricy. It’ll cost millions. Idk who’ll pay for it. But if the rich folks will figure it out, I think it’ll need to be staffed to prevent theft and vandalism, unlike some nations where public chargers are unstaffed. I think this expense will be passed on to electric vehicle owners.

    The goal will be – There must be no low-🔋 worry when going from, say, Laguna ➡️ Baguio.

    I think Big oil here won’t just be idle. They may fight the electric vehicle boom to protect their ₱ cow – oil.
