Without a garage, Miriam and Guy plan their week around charging their electric car

federal government to introduce tougher emission standards to force the importation of fuel efficient cars"What’s really crucial is to get the ones where you can leave your car, do your shopping — those are the chargers we need and we need about 130 of them by 2030 to get the community to uptake on EVs," she said.

It's a similar story in Melbourne, where Port Phillip Council has recently begun a trial with start-up Kerb Charge,The lack of charging points is something that Sydney councils are acutely aware has to change to get more EVs on the road — the key to significantly reducing emissions. The Australian Renewable Energy Agency is funding a trial of 50 chargers installed on power poles in Sydney's east, Inner West, Ryde, Parramatta, and Northern Beaches, as well as Singleton and Lake Macquarie.

Oh for fuckd sake! Are you serious! Real tragic story.

who cares, crap news

why they smiling if its an issue?

On the plus side, when their battery catches fire at least it won't burn their house down.

What the hell! I have to visit petrol station; these twits can visit an EV station. Don't like that, should never have bought an EV. How does this shit even make the news! 🤬🤬🤬

This is what a Teal voting family looks like

Without a home petrol pump, This family plans their day around going to a petrol station.

“one of Sydney's most densely populated eastern suburbs only kilometres from the CBD.” So why do they own a car at all? Couple of e-bikes and public transport would be more suitable for that area. Hire a car for the times you need one would be cheaper and more convenient.

They can just run their car on woke juice. There’s plenty of it about, and it’s free!

Average Tesla owner intellect

Lol. Sell that shit and buy a hybrid. just recycle better and get solar panels if you want to do something

Coal powered electric car. Lol you clowns

“But then they moved to a new apartment” Sounds like they created their own problem

The Musk revealed since the Twitter takeover does not reconcile with someone competent to run a motor vehicle company. I'd take the loss and have the Tesla destroyed as a duty to my community. Musk is severely cooked, how on earth can his products be competently safe?

how shit is that

I'd like to see a breakdown of what this car is made of ,ie: the metal,car seats, batteries,wheels etc and compare that to a normal car. The only bit environmentally friendly will be perhaps charging it. Perhaps...

A funny thing but people don’t have petrol bowsers in there house either but still seem to manage ‘planning their week’ around getting fuel

Beware of false prophets

So they pay heaps for an EV and to live in “leafy” Darling Point, but expect someone else to pay for charging their car? FFS

Muppets

'...the local council put a note on the car asking them to stop. ' Well did they?

So they paid an inflated price for a car they can only charge publicly? “The cost of charging at home has risen by 43% for some drivers, while the already higher cost of on-the-road recharges has gone up 25%.”

And who's responsible for the inconvenience of that? abcnews abc730 auspol

this is a business for the smarties.............sell it 60c/kwh

Well everyone should have a hobby abcnews abc730 auspol

TheBabylonBee - this you?

Jesus. Fucking. Christ.

And they run on coal… and will for at least another 15 years. You’d have a lower carbon footprint over that period buying an lpg car.

Wouldn’t it have been much more prudent to run articles like these BEFORE the multitude of articles pushing EVs?

Electric bikes the answer! Much easier and quicker to charge. Get up those Eastern Suburbs hills no problem.

So it going to take a week to change their electricity car . ?

All for nothing. Bravo.

Matthew Guy to step down as state Liberal leaderLiberal leader Matthew Guy is stepping down as leader of the Coalition in Victoria after leading his party to a second resounding defeat. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Obviously. Going to be a long road ahead for the Liberals if they are to be a legitimate chance of regaining govt. I assume Pesutto and Wilson will need to run a strong reform agenda internally and then develop a proper platform for VIC. At the moment they are a shambles. Yep that was a great result for the LNP last night to lose by 25 seats. They rightfully should be proud👍

Matthew Guy steps down as Victorian Liberal leaderVictorian Opposition leader Matthew Guy has announced he is stepping down as the state’s Liberal leader following a thumping loss at Saturday's election. Victoria has transitioned into a socialist state. Who would even want the job now. It’s pointless. Peta should be next. I wonder how long it'll be before she gets the tap on the shoulder. When your major selling-point is 'We're just a tiny bit more moderate than the other mob, but not that you'd even notice most of the time, we promise. So please vote for us'.
