Abstract
Internal combustion engine vehicles are the major means of mobility in the world, but the growing concerns of carbon emissions and climate change have necessitated the need to explore green, safe and sustainable transportation means, which is known as electromobility (e-mobility). Despite the many benefits and motivations for e-mobility in Africa, it has some constraints to its adoption including high import duties, high cost of electric vehicles, lack of enabling government policies and regulations, limited public charging stations, lack of government subsidies and incentives, etc. Therefore, appropriate steps by African governments coupled with private and public engagements, and the academia can lead to smooth and profitable transition to green mobility for all in Africa.
