Ethiopia has emerged as an unexpected leader in Africa’s electric vehicle (EV) transition. In 2023, the country became the first in the world to ban imports of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.
Against this backdrop, Ethiopia’s EV push marks a dramatic pivot. The ICE ban, combined with import duty waivers and tax exemptions for EVs, signals a radical shift in transportation policy. If government-reported EV figures are accurate, they point to a wholesale transformation of the national vehicle fleet in a remarkably short time period.
According to the Ministry of Transport and Logistics, the country now has 100,000 EVs on its roads, accounting for roughly 8.3% of its estimated 1.2 million registered vehicles. If accurate, that would make Ethiopia the clear front-runner in EV penetration on the continent, and a surprising contender among top global adopters .
Like most African countries, Ethiopia’s roads are dominated by used cars, which make up around 85% of vehicles. But a complex mix of high import duties — historically as high as 200% — and chronic foreign currency shortages have long made car ownership out of reach for most Ethiopians.
