@sophiescamps.bsky.social Arguably the most show-stopping aspect of the Atto 1 is its base price. It starts at just $23,990 before on-road costs, making it $6000 cheaper than the next most affordable EV, the BYD Dolphin www.carexpert.com.au/car-news/202...

Renewables are READY. 🟢 Wind and solar already dominate new power capacity and beat fossil fuels on cost, with storage and smart grids keeping them reliable. 🟢 Clean, homegrown renewables can shield tens of millions from price shocks and energy blackmail.

@chrisbowenmp.bsky.social New BMW iX3 40 variant will arrive in the formal quarter of the year priced at $89,900 (before on-road costs). Price puts it almost on par with petrol-powered X3 SUV, and makes it cheaper than previous-generation iX3 it replaces www.msn.com/en-au/motori...

Angus Taylor and the Coalition want to sweat these assets out for longer, meaning more breakdowns and more upward pressure on prices.  We're investing in cheap, reliable and sovereign renewable energy just like everyday Australians.

@chrisbowenmp.bsky.social Why these Aussie cities are failing EV Based o insurer's report, Darwin least EV-friendly capital city in Australia, with only 33 charging plugs per 100,000 people! Also Hobart has only 45 charging plugs per 100,000 residents www.drive.com.au/caradvice/ch...

Many (most) anti EV responses I get argue that the grid cannot handle EV charging. But not a single peep over the massive end requirements of data centers that seem to be using far more energy. Similar with faux environmentalists when it comes to renewable energy.
