The study discusses the role of Governments and Buyers to enable sustainable road transportation by facilitating mass adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). EV sales have witnessed strong growth in the last few years to reach 753,000 units in new registrations in 2016 (compared to just 48,000 in 2011). Although EVs possess several social, operational and environment benefits, the study reviews existing literature to highlight certain attitudinal and socio-technical barriers including low range and less matured charging infrastructure along with others. To expedite EVs penetration, the study explores certain practical considerations for Governments as well as current and prospective Buyers. The considerations listed in the study holds implications for Buyers and Governments to limit certain attitudinal, economic and technical barriers thererby accelerating EVs adoption.Keywords
