The Nigerian government approved tax waivers for nearly 4,000 electric vehicles in early 2026 as part of an initiative to promote electric mobility despite significant challenges in electricity supply and charging infrastructure.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Nigeria’s shift to tax incentives for electric vehicles is opening a competitive window for EV makers and sellers this year despite flawed grid power. You must build offerings around unreliable electricity or risk losing customers to alternatives that manage power better.
