I’ll be the first to admit, the main tipping point for us was FOMO over the the novated leasing FBT getting reduced from next year onwards.
Still waiting on delivery, but damned happy we finally pulled the trigger.
Every time I do the back-of-napkin math (solar panels, home battery, EV) - it makes me smile.
Especially while the electricity providers are offering overnight EV charging plans (5-8c/kW) - going to try and piggyback that into charging up the home batteries to cover our power bill during the day, which then gets topped up by the panels throughout the day.
~$2,500 saved on fuel a year, ~$500 a year saved on home electricity.
That’s a significant chunk of change back in our pockets.
I’d be interested to see the statistics for people ditching cars altogether for e-bikes.
The numbers don’t add up to 100%, what are they omitting
Plug-in hybrids.
27000 is EV which article puts at 24.9%. 26000 is petrol which would be ~24%. 23600 is diesel which would be ~21.8%. EV plus plug-in hybrid is 36% therefore plug-in hybrid is ~11%.
So total of diesel, petrol, plug-in and EV is ~82%. Are the rest push bikes?

Are there any factory LPG vehicles left for sale? They wouldn’t be that much of the market anyway though.
That remaining 18 percent isn’t hydrogen that’s for sure.
They might be treating convential hybrids as separate from petrol. But yeah, would be nice to see a clear breakdown.
