00:00You said that in the first half of the season, you have achieved 10% for EV car, so for this year, what are your plans?
00:08We don't have any plans for this year, we just want to make sure that we achieve our target for 2030.
00:18But I think, let me just get the numbers correct.
00:21At this time, just to make sure that I got the numbers right, our target is 20% of our total cars by 2030 will be EV.
00:36At this time, there are 6,617 cars that have been sold in the first 6 months of 2024, which shows an increase of 112% compared to the first 6 months of last year.
00:49So I think we should be on track to meet our target, which is 20% of total TIV, total industry volume.
01:00So for the EV charging port, there will be 10,000 units by next year, so how many units are there currently?
01:08So for the EV charging port, at this time, I said 30th September, 3,171 charging stations have been installed across the country,
01:19where 813 are DC fast chargers, and the target is 10,000 charging stations by the end of 2025.
