From a market perspective, I see this as a realistic landing point. In Hanoi, motorcycles are daily transport itself, and clamping down all at once would stop ordinary people's lives. Phased introduction is the wisdom of a transition period heading toward electrification. It offers one model for the same challenge every Southeast Asian city is facing.

This relaxation ends up buying each manufacturer more time on the transition to electric.

A phased rollout that factors in the impact on residents' daily lives seems like a realistic middle ground.

Going from a radical plan to a relaxed one really shows just how out of touch the original proposal was.
