Abstract: The adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has been suggested as a possible way to reduce excessive carbon emissions and conquering environmental major issues in Indonesia. Despite the advantages of being eco-friendly and providing environmental benefits, there are several barriers and reasons for why the adoption of EVs is still considerably limited in Indonesia. The transition process from existing ICE vehicle to EVs is often not easy to understand, as it involves complex technical, social, and economic facets. Yet, a further investigation on how EV transitions in Indonesia needs to be done. A multidimensional and multi-actor analysis of the EV landscape can help us better understand the dynamics of transition to EVs. In this paper, a multilevel perspective (MLP) framework is used to examine the current state of EV adoption in Indonesia and to interpret the prospects of a possible transition path to EVs. The study shows that a potential transition to EVs in Indonesia presents many socio-technical challenges to overcome including current policies, institutions, technological infrastructure, and social limitations. The insights from this review can be used for settings where policies and institutions are not developed enough to achieve a transition to EVs.
