To deal with environmental issues, government, medium and large industries should start considering electrifying conventional vehicles. Currently, it is suspected that research that discusses the conversion of fossil fuel-based trucks to electric trucks is still low, not only in Indonesia but also globally. This research discusses a literature study on the development and application of electric vehicles (EVs), electric trucks, and the conventional vehicle conversion. The literature study was carried out using the Scopus database. The keywords used in the search include electric vehicle, electric car, electric bus, electric truck, and electric truck conversion. The literature review has been conducted as comprehensive as possible, including the distribution of publication quantity based on countries, subject areas, and the scope of research objects. Based on the results of a literature study, it is concluded that research on EV in Indonesia is still low compared to other countries in terms of the quantity of publications. Indonesia is quite able to compete in terms of research on passenger EVs (cars and buses) but research on EVs development for trucks and it's conversion are still low. This findings can be used as a reference in developing EVs researches in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
