EV State of Charge Australia

Haven’t seen too much discussion of this but an interesting move. Sadly not sure we have the actual vehicles they would want yet in Oz though, so not sure it will get much use. www.news.com.au/technology/m...

I know I won’t actually see this range but nice on 2 year old ZS EV to see above sticker range still 🤓

Australian EV sales: How they're shaping up as 2024 nears its end EV sales year-to-date are up on the same period last year, but they've been let down by slumping demand for Teslas.

Tesla leads Australia YTD Ev sales with 30,750 made up of 16,697 Model Y and 14,053 Model 3 but that is a 19% drop year to date with BYD up 37% off a lower base. Led by the Seal with 5,308 www.carexpert.com.au/car-news/aus...

2024 Australian EV sales: Tesla and BYD still on top, MG slumping, BMW smashing Benz and Toyota a bit player with bZ4X - EV Central Combining figures for passengers cars and commercial vehicles like utes and vans, there's over 75 different EVs for Aussies to choose from. Hasn't that happened quickly?

The monthly figures of total % of car sales can make it look like EV’s are slowing. However they are 7% higher than last year and boy is there choice for an EV buyer down under.

Also Leads to races blurring together and they no longer feel special with a few exceptions.

Saw one in the wild yesterday and didn’t hate it on sight. I suspect their target market likes it because it look inside and out like a Toyota and not so scary to them.

A BIG app update. | Chargefox A new version of the Chargefox app is available on iPhone and Android, providing a smoother, easier experience for charging your EV.

Aussie EV owners grab the new Chargefox update for their app. Among the update ability to see the charge level of a car charging, idle fees at 200 sites and more www.chargefox.com/news/a-big-a...

That’s the aim 🤓

Look forward to making the list one day.

Apart from EV’s I love Sim Racing and run a new YouTube channel Sim Racing Struggles (I am passionate but not good). Would love it if you could check it out youtube.com/@simracingst...

Seeing a few EV sales falling articles. Think a few things in play, economy, early adopter phase over. The last one I think was to be expected, so expect small steps for a little while. Cheap EV’s will help though as the MG4 shows in Aus.

Yeah sadly looks more likely GM get in but not him. Hopefully we are all reading that wrong.

What is it expected be when cars hit the track? That has really got to hamper tyre warm up (I can’t recall last but that seems colder).

Bluey and a large gap to second.

Might want to have a look at the EV’s they have launched over there as well. Not sure the Capri and Explorer were great or what the market wanted.

When V2G opens in Australia what is the maximum you would pay to have the equipment installed at home (assuming your car is approved for it)? Suspect this may actually end up too expensive for many people.

Watching Ready Player One on an actual VR headset is pretty cool. #quest2 #readyplayerone

What new EV (key word new) are you most looking forward to seeing in the wild on an Australian road?
