SOUNDBITE 1 (Arabic): ALAA NADER HASSAN, Businessman
"We shifted our focus to Chinese-made electric motorcycles and e-bikes for various reasons. These vehicles are environmentally friendly, utilize advanced technologies, help reduce congestion, and are cost-effective. Additionally, the relationships between Chinese factories and Iraqi merchants are excellent and there is mutual trust."
Decades of conflicts in Iraq have damaged infrastructure, worsening traffic issues in cities like Baghdad.
In May 2023, the Iraqi government decided to ban the import of tuk-tuks and fuel motorcycles, opening the market for electric vehicles.
Dhiyaa al-Iraqi, a local resident, explored the features of these electric motorcycles, ready to buy one. He noted the rising popularity of Chinese electric motorcycles in Iraq.
