Electric vehicles (EVs) are the center of international rivalry and attention in the automotive industry as electrification, internet connectivity, intelligence, and sharing become the direction of vehicle technology and industry growth. Promoting the usage of electric vehicles could be a critical step towards improving envirmental quality and reducing the large-scale pollution. However, due to geographical variances, each country's penetration market differs according to public awareness, technological progress, economic growth, density of population, and infrastructure development. In this regard, policy support and market management are regarded as critical in order to analyse public resource input and optimal allocation, as well as to boost end-consumer confidence and buy intents.

The objective of this section is to consider the concerns of government policymakers and market management strategists in the field of electric vehicles in an attempt to comprehend how policy and strategy decisions have been made, monitor their consequences, and offer ways to improve them. This section also covers the entire electric vehicle transportation industry, including policy and strategic concerns, economic development, infrastructure, and the environment. Papers should have evident policy and strategy management relevance and should analyse transport policies and strategies using both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. Articles that focus on exploring the nature and effects affecting policy and strategy change, including technical, attitudinal, institutional, structural, and political barriers, as well as those that give a comparative analysis, are also encouraged. The articles that are just concerned with methodological advancement and lack a clear policy focus and significance will not be considered. We do, however, encourage qualitative policy studies that build on the body of knowledge, demonstrate clear contributions above and beyond what is already in the literature, and/or are broadly applicable to other jurisdictions. Papers that are solely focused on particular case studies are better suited for this section.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
