The shift also reflects broader economic pressures, with fuel prices remaining relatively stable compared to the cost of electric‑vehicle components. As the country rebuilds its transport sector, manufacturers and policymakers are reassessing incentives to support a more balanced, yet still predominantly gasoline‑driven, fleet.
