        Takes 4 hours to charge the car. Good luck with that. Imagine the impact on our electrical grid if every card in Australia was electric.

        Think for a moment of how much of Australia is more than fours hours away from any mains power. There is an awful lot of it. #ausag

        The batteries have a shelf life. How do we dispose them once that life is reached.

        Australia doesnt have a low cost electric grid. Nor electric car manufacturers. Nor lithium source. Exchanging one dependency for another .
