Over the course of the conference, the FIA reiterated its commitment to the region’s growth and success, publishing new research on EV trends across key markets in Asia Pacific. The research showed particularly significant growth in Japan, driven by new subsidies and government incentives.   The region’s three Innovation Challenge finalists were also recognised during a presentation session on Friday.
