Explanation of Solution

The marketplace dynamics which drive the developing of electric vehicles are:

  • High demand for electric cars would reduce the manufacturing costs.
  • Research and innovation which makes electric cars more competing with fuel cars.
  • Government promoting the use of electric cars.

The marketplace dynamics which suppress the developing of electric vehicles are:

  • High price of electric cars suppress the demand for electric cars.
  • High manufacturing costs involved in making of electric cars.
  • Tough competition with fuel cars.

The government must promote the production of electric cars by providing some types of economic incentives like providing them subsidy on the production of each electric car produced or giving them tax credit. It can also give tax credit to the consumers who use electric cars as it would decrease the carbon emissions and make the environment better.
