      We have the same experience. Unfortunately the trolls on this channel and elsewhere trumpeting in loud and triumphant terms the failure of the electric vehicle disruption can't accept that anybody would ever be happy with an electric vehicle because, well you know, they catch fire, the battery only lasts two years, the insurance costs $10,000 a year, no one can repair them, and there's no place to charge them and on a road trip it takes at least 2 hours to charge. Oh and they also burn down your house. When you contradict all these trolling and disinformation memes, people really just don't know what to say except to just reiterate the garbage. It's really quite sad. It's the Triumph of Doctrine and fear over experience and science.

    Australia will likely become a renewable energy superpower and net exporter over the next decade. BEV, battery, and solar panel OEMs are being squeezed out of China and looking to expand production and distribution to other markets, including Australia. Australia has access to the best renewable energy technology and products from both the West and the East, as well as your own vast mineral resources. Australia will likely build massive battery supported solar farms. The energy availability will likely draw technology firms to build AI data centers. Eventually, as robotics and factory automation improve, the energy availability will likely also draw highly automated manufacturers.

      They may create solar ships that charge batteries offshore in sunny areas and return to port to discharge their energy.
      It would work well for some Asian countries.
      These ships could charge in an Australian port and set sail to Asia, undersea cable not required.

And as for retired.... guilty as charged, but most people I've seen in EVs have been much, much younger than I, maybe they were leasing? BTW: Leasing a Tesla is a good way to have a fixed cost. The up side: it's a low monthly payment. The downside: there is a big down payment and you can't buy it for the residual at the end of the lease. Plus, if you plan to put a lot of miles on the car, leasing might be a bad idea.

      The typical EV purchaser in the US is a rich, liberal homeowner with a private garage/charger.
      A recent Gallup poll in the US showed half of people would not even consider buying an EV, one-third might consider an EV in the future, and one-sixth either owned or seriously considering an EV. So there seems to be a fairly low ceiling for EV sales in the US in the near future, perhaps doubling from last-year's 8%.

    Hi Sam,
    Thank you.
    Australians historically have always embraced new technologies, computers, laptops, sound systems, solar, we love the stuff.
    Therefore, EVs will be no different. Australians talk over the fence to each other, if a product is crap, they will tell you, even if its embarrassing that they own one.
    Rising petrol prices, are not enough yet to change their minds, the real reluctance for most, is price, range, easy access to charging stations and slow charging.
    For some, it's not a problem, but most will wait to see these EV issues improve first.
    Having said that, as you say in 12 months, a lot of these drawbacks will look a lot better in favour of EV.
    Great posts

      Actually, it is more like battery technology is not changing at all. It is all just a lot of hot air and false hopes and promises. So much noise about "new miracle battery technology" almost every week - and then NOTHING ever really materializes. So many new EVs coming out now but range and battery energy density pretty mush stays the same. And If you hear about a new EV with big range, upon checking it always means they just stuck a lot bigger ( and heavier) battery into it.

    My next car will be an EV but for now I have a micro solar power system for our apartment and bicycles to get around locally. I'm waiting for the next generation Teslas with power share capability. Having 5-10 Powerwalls in your car makes sense to be able to use it for emergencies or camping.

    Aust is little different to the US and Europe in that respect of EVs. Most residents live around large cities, well suited to EVs. Consider 2023 EV sales it on a per capita basis relative to population, in order to ascertain market penetration relative to ICE vehicles. China has a population of 1.4 billion, the EU around 750 million and the US around 333 million. On a per capita basis in terms of EV purchases in 2023, the US had ( 1 in 277 persons ) being a similar market penetration to China ( 1 in 274 persons ) who purchased an EV in 2023. Europe is lagging behind at 1 in 375 persons purchased an EV in 2023. It's not that surprising that Europe lags behind really, because Tesla dominates US EV sales and has done so for years and has a more mature EV market, given Tesla originated in the US. Looking at the data this way suggests that the culture and appetite for EVs in 2023 in the USA was almost just as strong as in China. The difference between the US and China in this per capita context is insignificant. This might suggest that among other actions, Europe needs to improve EV super charging infrastructure at a greater pace, in order to drive higher per capita market penetration of EVs.

      Quite a lot of EU citizens with a monthly income of 600-800 euro/ dollar per month can only dream of an EV! These people buy 20 years old cars from Germany in the first place. About five years ago when I visited Poland, I asked some interesting people (police officer and high school teachers what they earn monthly). Then Poland isn't the poorest country in so-called eastern Europe.

Then financially EVs deprecate 42percent after two years that buys you a lot of fuel. Also look at what Australians mostly buy Utes and SUVs, and what Australians do with those cars and again Australians will not be buying EVs any time soon, our EV market will start to fade as it has done overseas soon.

Sounds like BS, the majority of people don't have that kind of money and would obviously direct their resources toward housing than technology not suited to Australia.

    Sam, I think people in Australia (at least 80 %) will buy EVs in a very short period of time. When people realise the real cost of owning cars, any car, many think they can use the money for other things that is more interesting which can be anything. Most people have limited budgets, and now they realise that they have some money for other things too. People learn from friends, colleagues and relatives, and from internet... But changes takes some time that's why you use the word tipping point.
    When there are enough EVs there will be enough charging stations.
    I think one of the biggest charging provider in Finland is the state owned oil company Neste! The thing in Finland is that most of the gasoline stations have had cafeterias or small lunch restaurants. At least you can take a cup of coffee and relax while charging your EV.
    I think in Norway people have noticed that they can do some work, while charging. Does it play a part if you do your work while at home or while you sit in your car?

    Look beyond the sticker price when comparing ICE to EV. I’ve owned my EV for 2 years and apart from rego/insurance it’s cost me nothing to run. Zero maintenance and it gets fuelled from my solar panels. That makes it $4,000 p.a cheaper than my last ICE - a Mazda CX-5. Rego and insurance were about the same on the Mazda. 30% of Aussies are smart enough to figure this out 🤔

EV owners keep saying how good they are but never actually come out and tell everyone how much higher the insurance is and how much it costs to get their free electricity and how much it is to use the fast charges and how long it takes to charge and how often they have to charge.

My comment was aimed at those people who can afford an EV but don’t see the value in owning one. The higher sticker price puts them off but they don’t allow for the lower cost of ownership over time.

The EV mature markets like China and others will force europe later to go all in electric. This transition will then be very expensive because they hold up investments now

    With EVs the dirty secret is INSURANCE. If you compare insurance between similarly priced ICE car and EV car - most of the time you will find that insurance is at least 50% more for the EV (with all other parameters being the same, location, driver age, history etc). Which for most people eliminates any savings made on fuel. THAT is what the EV car makers AND global governments must urgently look into, what the hell is going on with car insurance on EVs.
