China is the prime of electric vehicle now. They control high % of raw material for battery also. Congo ? (I think so) 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ysc3 Twincharged October 24, 2018 Share October 24, 2018 (edited) During my trip to Hainan in May, tried the electric bus there. not much diff but bus is smaller. and very much quieter, except for the commuters talking. I am guessing that the SG electric buses will only ply those feeder routes as the batts might not be able to tahan bedok to jurong. but one thing that was GREAT was it only cost RMB 1cent if you pay by wechat, cash is rmb$2.

(I think so) Congo is cobalt which is required for Li-on batteries. Yes the chinese have secured supplies there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
