Default Re: Sold out: why Australia doesn’t have enough electric vehicles to go around

Bit off topic(but close enough!) Hybrids are in the same boat, you just cannot get one for ‘love or money’(sort of!)On a more serious note though I would happily own one, but to get a ‘decent’ one you have to be looking @ Tesla territory,not some crappy MG, which is not much good except in the urban environment.I mean who wants to go massive distances in one of those things?Not me.So, I ended going with a Hybrid which I believe atm is the ‘sweet spot’ in the market atm.Wait times? Mine is due imminently(next week) but I was one of the lucky ones to get in very early & secure one, wait times are now six months minimum.EV’s need to come down to a more reasonable price to make them more viable to the average Jill & Joe.Re battery life though,that is an interesting one, mine will have a 8 year warranty, think 10 years should be the industry standard though.
