Abstract

Large-scale EVs acceptance would certainly lead to relieving major issues, including carbon pollution, petroleum dependence, and economic prosperity. However, Pakistan confronting a range of cross-sectoral and multifarious impediments has recently decided to switch from ICEs to EVs with a variety of policy options for auto manufacturers, customers, and worldwide stakeholders. This paper gives a detailed overview of ongoing EVs maturation and addresses some of the main adaptation challenges and opportunities in Pakistan. The review shows that state financial subsidies, market prices, technical malignancy, and social drawbacks are some of the most significant obstacles for EVs to join the current market. Hence, recommendations are stipulated in compliance with the corresponding obstacles to encourage the competence and expansion of the EVs industry which will contribute to more secure futures. On the other hand, Pakistan's transition to EVs offers some exciting milestones, there is a need to adopt a proactive and effective strategy to track the positive aspects of fast progress and optimize its benefits. • Current developments in EVs sector and adaptation scenario for Pakistan are reviewed. • Major obstacles confronting broad-based adoption of EVs are discussed in detail. • Statistical analysis and interactive visualization discussed various factors for EVs. • Substantiate future development opportunities of EVs lead to technological progress. • Recommended stratagems are advised to incorporate commitment from automotive sectors.
