Earth Day Downunder EV Expo was a great success with dozens of stalls and display vehicles and hundreds of visitors.
Parked just outside was an electric bus — very popular when the showers hit. I was surprised that it was a brand I had not yet heard of, and it bodes well for the expansion of electric buses in Australia. Competition is a good thing. On the other side of the entrance was a flock of electric bikes. Many of the city dwellers had travelled to the event on them.
The high price of EVs was still a sticking point, though I did explain the cost savings in petrol . I told these people to wait 6 months — by the end of the year we should have some BYDs and Great Wall ORAs on sale at much lower prices than a Tesla.
