Electric and hybrid vehicles use electricity and a combination of electricity and fuel, respectively, to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease emissions. Proponents argue that it significantly cuts pollution and advances the transition to renewable energy sources. Opponents argue that it increases vehicle costs, limits consumer choice, and may strain the electric grid.

@9TBZZV66mos6MO
cars should be prodominently electric by 2035. And all diesel cars should be registered as historical monuments that can be legal to drive anytime
@9WKJ9XZ5mos5MO
No, eletric cars should be banned as they are more harmful to the environment than petrol or disel cars
@B3BDQRZ2wks2W
No, not until the infrastructure to support these vehicles are country wide and vehicles have at least 600km charges for rural areas
@B39866F2wks2W
no but add more PT PL RH adding 5-10 percent more and cat converters must be made from a titanium alloy from the muffler to 10cm past the cat and government will make it for new cars and invest into hydrogen cell vehicles and MR-MC trucks will stay diesel helping others also getting a hybrid evs etc. (expect for Tesla's and chinesium car witch both are banned
@B38YCYR2wks2W
How realistic would this be particularly in WA given how far people need to travel in a day. If this was to be enforced there needs be support for low income and pension card holders and for people with disabilities as there are limited affordable cost for wheelchair vehicles
@B375X4K2wks2W
Yes, but only if this switch does not depend on other non-renewable resources, such as industrial electricity, and if it requires them to run on renewable energy.
@B2V2C391mo1MO
Yes, but only if rural and regional Australia are provided with the same resources to maintain these vehicles as metropolitan areas
@B2RMGRR1mo1MO
Yes for most vehicles, but certain markets such as some agricultural or industrial machinery may should be exempted as they can be very difficult to electrify
