摘要：
Production locations in least developed countries need their own indicators to evaluate sustainability due to prevailing conditions. For this reason, we present a selection and extension of indicators for social and economic sustainability evaluation for production locations in least developed countries. These indicators are identified and tested based on existing sustainability evaluation methods and representative case studies. Since the battery electric vehicle is seen as the future, the case studies results are used to derive recommendations for an all-wheel lightweight commercial electric vehicle production in sub-Saharan Africa. This vehicle was developed to fit the needs of people living in rural regions of sub-Saharan Africa as well as to add local value to economically support the region. (C) 2019 The Authors.
