The new head of South Australia Power Networks says the local grid can meet the demand from EVs without the need for costly upgrades.

Victoria's misguided EV tax has been scrapped but the High Court decision flags the need for consistent national policy.

State based EV taxes have been declared unconstitutional, and EV advocates argue future road user taxes should apply to all vehicles and not be a disincentive to EV adoption.

Even in countries where the grid is dominated by fossil fuels, EVs produce less CO2 than internal combustion engine cars over their lifecycle.

In a damning assessment the Victorian Ombudsman found the Victorian Department of Transport and Planning administered the state's EV road tax unfairly and must change.

Neither a train nor a bus, the trackless tram provides an opportunity to do public transport better.

Whilst NSW and Victoria are winding back government rebates for electric vehicles, several financial lenders now offer discounted interest rates for the purchase of an EV.
