Starting December 15, apartment complexes in Vietnam must implement new regulations regarding parking arrangements. The mandate requires the establishment of dedicated parking areas specifically for electric motorbikes and electric cars. Additionally, these complexes must provide designated zones for charging and battery replacement. These measures are being introduced primarily to enhance fire safety and prevention. The new requirements aim to mitigate risks associated with electric vehicle batteries in residential buildings. By separating EV infrastructure, authorities hope to ensure a safer living environment for residents. This regulatory shift reflects a growing need to adapt urban housing to the rise of electric mobility.
