Yes we need more regional chargers, but only issue I had with a long charge was on Nullabor roadhouse around Christmas.

β€˜Sad day for publicly funded science’: up to 350 more jobs to go at CSIRO Australia’s national scientific agency announces more research job losses as it looks for budgetary savings

This is obscene.

The challenges facing the nation means we should be scaling up CSIRO, not cutting it to shreds.

While we are sending billions to the US for nuclear shipyards, our science and industrial base at home is falling apart for lack of funds and direction.

GAC’s not just launching cars, they’re launching logistics.
Melbourne’s getting one of only 7 global GAC parts warehouses.
fewer delays, faster repairs, and less time crying in a loan car, and no need to argue but what about service with a new brand! all sorted.

More progress!

South Korea has announced it will not build any new coal plants and will shut down 40 existing plants by 2040 to address the climate crisis.

That’s massive.

The 2026 KGM Musso EV is Australia’s first all-wheel-drive electric ute and it’s not from Toyota or Isuzu. It’s from KGM (the artist formerly known as SsangYong). 420km range, AWD, and a $60K price tag
It’s not a heavy-duty, but it’ll carry the Anaconda or BCF catalogue jsut fine. #EV #ute #tradie

Seen posts about Brazil chopping down 100,000 trees t make way for the COP30 climate summit.
Unfortunately this again appears to be disinformation initially spread by Trump.. the facts are, the image used was for a road built from 2012. Before the COP was even announced.

About 1m Ford diesel cars sold in UK with defective emissions controls, court told Ford denies having created β€˜defeat devices’ in legal action on behalf of 1.6 million owners against five carmakers

Ford: β€œWe didn’t cheat emissions.” β€œWe calibrated engines to pass a test, not reduce pollution.” Also Ford: β€œIt’s scientifically illiterate to say we cheated.” Cool story, bro.
the system stopped working in sixth gear. You know, the gear people actually drive in.

Going #EV isn't just about environment, its about health
your health.
Air pollution damages nearly every organ in the human body even unborn babies.
Yet:
β€’ Only 17% know it’s linked to dementia
β€’ 95% unaware of diabetes links
β€’ 82% unaware of stroke risks
β€’ 70% unaware of heart disease connections

Zeekr confirms the updated 7X won’t reach Australia for at least 12–18 months.
The new China model brings: 900V motors, 103kWh battery, 10-minute fast charging, 802km range & up to 585kW AWD.
But Aussies buying now are guaranteed no spec changes until mid-2027.

MG just slashed MG4 EV prices again β€” the Excite 51 is now $37,990 drive-away and comes with 1000kWh of Evie charging.
It’s basically: β€œbuy an EV, get a year of road trips for free.”
Competition from BYD & Ora is heating up… and MG’s response is: β€œFine. Here’s a discount AND electricity.”
