EV charging analysis

The hot climate, typical of the region, can reduce battery range by roughly 10-20 percent, meaning a vehicle with a nominal 400 km range might effectively manage only 320-360 km in summer heat. This imbalance between planned routes and local infrastructure suggests a nascent market still dependent on private charging solutions.
