It's externalising the costs to the environment. In the ev biz plan, it does not consider proper disposal so there's not way it will. Never think thru.
Comparatively mild hybrid makes more sense for batteries to be supplementary to use petrol more effectively while minimizing the battery footprint needed. The likes of mazda
I'm of the opinion that Singapore won't be successful in fully implementing EVs as almost 80% of its population lives in HDBs and condos, which have very limited charging stations. Commercial charges on the other hand are not only expensive (cost/kWh), but also time consuming. Imagine having to wait for at least 45 minutes to get up to 80% charge capacity, not to mention that you'll have to queue and wait if there is no available charger upon your arrival.I would like to get an EV. At least I don't have to go to petrol stations no more

Same models
batteries achieve around 70-80% efficiency from base source of energy. vs 30-40% for gasoline.
