Mexico’s growing oil‑rich region faces a paradox: the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a choke point for global energy supplies, could spark a faster shift toward electric mobility in the country.

It also examines policy incentives and the challenges of scaling up EV adoption amid a traditionally oil‑dependent economy.
