Nov 2, 2026 - The World`s Most Aggressive EV Push Isn`t in China In 2024, Ethiopia became the first country to ban imports of new gasoline-powered cars, and the main reason wasn`t global warming. Ethiopia was spending billions of dollars every year on imported fuel it couldn`t afford, and subsequently defaulted on its debt. Cheap hydropower from Africa`s largest dam made electric vehicles a practical alternative, and Chinese-made EVs — some assembled locally — quickly filled dealership lots. Today, Ethiopia`s EV share outpaces the global average. But sticker prices are too high for most, the grid remains patchy and armed conflict is flaring in the country and across the region. Can Ethiopia make its unprecedented bet on EVs pay off? 00:00 - 01:19 — Introduction 01:19 - 04:53 — Ethiopia`s Gas Car Ban 04:53 - 06:36 — Cheap Electricity In Ethiopia 06:36 - 07:55 — Chargers 07:58 - 10:42 — Flat-Pack Car Factory 10:42 - 11:56 — Mini buses 11:56 - 14:48 — Ethiopia`s Ambitions 14:48 - 15:44 — Conclusion 15:44 - 16:04 — End Credits |
