PLUGGED IN YET?

WE CAN’T FIGHT it anymore—electric vehicles (EVs) are no longer a part of a distant future. As EVs cement themselves in the mainstream, how will electric driving options be defined in the year ahead?

The ‘green’ image of EVs has shifted from a utopian dream for the environmentally conscious into one of practicality and luxury appeal for daily drivers. Thanks to breakthroughs in battery life, range anxiety—a long-time barrier for consumers—is fast diminishing. In Singapore, the Land Transport Authority is set on deploying some 60,000 charging points island-wide by 2030, enhancing accessibility of public and private charging infrastructure that’ll set EV owners’ minds at ease. But what will truly define the EV landscape in 2025?

As the automotive industry races toward a sustainable future, 2025 is poised to be a pivotal year when innovation meets pragmatism and luxury. EVs continue to dominate the conversation, with luxury automakers going full speed ahead in launching a flurry of both hybrid and fully electric models. Think Rolls-Royce’s Spectre, the Lotus Emeya range, Porsche’s Taycan, Maserati’s Folgore, you get the gist.
