The paradigm shift towards sustainable transportation underscores the burgeoning focus on electric vehicles (EVs) as a viable alternative to combustion-powered counterparts. Concurrently, the corpus of scholarly publications exploring this domain has expanded, endeavoring to address multifaceted challenges across various disciplines. Among the methodologies enlisted, Multi-criteria Decision Analysis (MCDM) emerges as a pivotal tool for decision-makers, facilitating the resolution of complex problems characterized by multiple criteria and alternatives. This research employs a modified Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology, integrating the Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) and the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) for article ranking. This novel approach not only enhances the precision of the ranking process but also earmarks the articles exerting substantial influence on the scholarly landscape. The exhaustive review culminates in a curated portfolio of 73 seminal articles, with a pronounced emphasis on Charging Stations applications, accounting for approximately 42.46% of the collective focus. This study's findings illuminate the prevailing trends within the nexus of EV research and MCDM, delineating a trajectory for future inquiries and applications. In doing so, it underscores the indispensable role of MCDM in navigating the complexities inherent in the transition to electrified mobility solutions. The meticulous application of the SLR methodology, augmented by AHP and TOPSIS, not only refines the academic discourse but also paves the way for a more structured and impactful exploration of EVs within the realm of sustainable transportation.
