Country Roadmap

Chile has a National Electromobility Strategy promoted by the Ministry of Energy. It is a state policy that aims to develop a roadmap to move towards the development of sustainable transport, with direct benefits to citizens.

New challenges are presented that aim to promote more efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles, in order to generate the necessary guidelines for the safe and sustainable development of electric mobility.

The program has goals and ambitions that are established transversally through strategies and national and international agreements that seek to accelerate the adoption of electric mobility in the country.

Latam Mobility in Chile

In August, Latam Mobility, the largest sustainable mobility community in Latin America, will arrive again in Santiago de Chile for its 2024 meeting.

It will be two days that will bring together the most prominent industry leaders, along with public sector personalities, to offer their perspectives on advances in low-emission mobility, electromobility and sustainability.
