Latin America is a region with significant oil reserves, but due to the polluting emissions generated by its use, the transition to more environmentally friendly solutions has gradually begun, such as the use of hybrid or electric engines to promote new means of transportation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although sales of these vehicles in the region are far from the figures of large markets such as China<\/strong>, Europe <\/strong>and the United States<\/strong>, they have grown steadily and rapidly in recent years, showing an evolution in the way of thinking and understanding the needs<\/strong> of both users and governments in Latin America for a cleaner future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the most recent report of the National Automotive Association of Chile<\/strong> (ANAC), May 2022 was “the best month in history in sales of light and medium zero and low emission vehicles, with 759 units sold compared to the same month of the previous year”.
