The electric vehicle (EV) market in Latin America is set for growth toward 2023. Although a nascent market today, a number of activities around pilot programs, B2B EV fleets, and recent B2C vehicle introductions by OEMs are expected to propel the market toward the medium term. Regulations, discussions around incentives, and tax rebates are also likely to be realized in the short-to-medium term. This study analyzes select Latin American countries' current EV market structures and future landscapes. It offers market forecasts and scenario analyses and also discusses the infrastructure-readiness of the market (toward 2023) before concluding with the future outlook and the top predictions.
