Read this, these utes are already on the boats on their way here, arriving within weeks. Why are businesses lining up to buy them? They’ve done the sums, it will save them LOTS of money. At least 5 times cheaper over the lifetime of the vehicle. And that’s even before prices of EVs come down with economies of scale and removing subsidies for petrol and diesel. Electric vehicles run for many more years than combustion clunkers, and the electricity is so much cheaper than fuel. Nothing to do with Greenies, just basic economics and engineering. And they have more ‘grunt’ than petrol or diesel utes. Just to correct the pig ignorance of a previous PM.
