Purchasing numbers of Electric vehicles in past 15 years, Number of EV chargers made available
Dear Transport Department,
I am interested in finding out the exact number of electric vehicles purchased annually in the past 15 years, as well as the number of EV chargers across HK made available. I have only been able to find numbers for sporadic years (April 2016, Oct 2017, April 2021). If possible, could the data also include the vehicle model and whether it is for public/private usage?
Yours sincerely,
Aiden Tandiono
