But for a long time, if you mentioned taking an electric vehicle into regional Australia, […]
It’s February 2026, and if you’ve spent any time at a BBQ lately, you’ve probably heard the classic Aussie EV debate.

It’s February 2026, and if you’ve been following the EV evolution, you already know the headline: petrol is pricey, and electrons are cheap.

It’s February 2026, and the “EV-curious” phase of Australian motoring has officially reached its expiration date.
