Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen has vowed to stop Australia becoming more of a “dumping ground” for high-polluting cars other countries won’t take as he hits back at electric vehicle “naysayers”.

He added now was the time for a “sensible discussion about whether fuel efficiency standards could help improve the supply of electric vehicles into our market”.
