Abstract
The Electromobility Potential Index (EMPI) is an innovative tool to evaluate the potential for the successful introduction of electric vehicles in large cities. Many local conditions affect the sustainability such as energy mix, climate and traffic flow. The existing EMPI has been fine-tuned to allow for a greater degree of precision and a more explicit evaluation, which will give a deeper insight of the potential and effects of the introduction of electric vehicles in the 46 cities considered. These results may help automakers and governments make the right decisions in order to realize sustainable solutions for individual mobility in megacities. This paper highlights the improvements for the EMPI and presents the results for the cities considered. Furthermore, the robustness of the evaluation is investigated by identifying the effects of varying the weighting factors and city parameters.
