This is what the average electric car owner in South Africa earns

The median individual income of a pure battery-electric vehicle buyer in South Africa stands at R115,000 per month, significantly higher than the average income of ICE buyers, who earn around R80,000 per month. This disparity highlights the growing affluence of the country's electric vehicle market, with nearly six in ten EV buyers residing in the affluent Gauteng province, a trend that underscores the vehicles' aspirational appeal.
