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.

@9WKJ9XZ4mos4MO
No, eletric cars should be banned as they are more harmful to the environment than petrol or disel cars
@9TBZZV65mos5MO
cars should be prodominently electric by 2035. And all diesel cars should be registered as historical monuments that can be legal to drive anytime
@B2V2C392wks2W
Yes, but only if rural and regional Australia are provided with the same resources to maintain these vehicles as metropolitan areas
@B2RMGRR2wks2W
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
@B2QYDMC2wks2W
Not until we find an eco friendly humane way to acquire materials, and would need to subsidise these for low income citizens
@B2QB8PN2wks2W
Making it only electricity car to be driven will case to lose so much history on old classic and nice car and take a community away for car enthusiasts
@B2CRG6D1mo1MO
No, there is no energy infrustructure plan or plan to replace base load power which will need to be 30-50% more capacity. Electric vehicles supply chain is not green and plan for waste and recycling not in place.
@B28STLD1mo1MO
No, because we still don't have a safe or sustainable way to dispose of these vehicles when their life span ends.
