    Seems less a national strategy than a municipal:

    Starting next summer, the major downtown areas of Hanoi will ban all gasoline-powered motorcycles as part of a program to cut down on emissions.

      So not just sales, but the actual use of them? I’ve only ever been to Hanoi once many years ago, but there was an enormous amount of gasoline-powered motorcycles there then that would need replacement. I guess their domestic Vinfast brand will see a surge in sales in anticipation of this legislation, but the transition might even be well on its way?

        That’s how i read this text. Similar to other cities that have “low-emission-zones”.
