@@Sensei_Sifu_ Not sure yet, there are still a few other things I need to have up and running first. I will start a project car with a second hand Tesla and document the progress.
Ok, great that you can be there and thanks for all you do... however do we have an update on the Victorian EV Tax? And it's a bit useless having a EV show in Melbourne, the only state in the world that has an eve tax and a moron Premier that just axed in June the incentive payment to buy an EV. whereas Queensland is giving people $6,000 dollars to get an eve. This is just kicking us while we are down! :(
No they where not... there was a couple of BYD's on stands like BP Charging... There was no MG at all only the one at AEVA Stand, but did not look like the MG EV
The saddest thing about the show was no BYD, Mercedes, LDV with there pickup, MG, Volvo, Porsche only 2 by stands showing other items, etc. very poor turn out for a EV show. Lots of empty floor space with ICE cars filling some spots. Maclaren's 2 off them and a Lexus. I did see a couple of Hybrids on stands but not by there company, used to show charging or other addons for EV's.
Thanks Chris
Interesting summary
Good luck with the panel talk😉
I hope I can catch your talk tomorrow.

Polestar 3 would be a good option if it were $60k less. Like the Fisker Ocean.
Outrageous price of $140k for a Chinese model.
Yeah. Polestar 2 should be same as BYD.
Are MG and BYD at the show? 🙏

@@lindsaybrown7639 Pity. Maybe MG and BYD sales are so high that participation in the show wasn’t considered worthwhile. ☹️
I was quoted 300,000 $ for Kia ev9 ! ...a concept car only!
its gonna be around $100k
@@Sensei_Sifu_ articles I saw were saying AUD$90k for the base model and AUD$130k for top spec.
Yep. Correction ...i was quoted 130k entry level

Yay this will be as exciting as watching paint dry. Sorry, not an EV fan.
