“In China, #BYD has a manufacturing line dedicated to producing right-hand drive vehicles for #Australia and #NewZealand that is capable of constructing a vehicle in 52 seconds,” — #StephenCollins (BYD Australia’s CEO)
“It said China’s fleet of EVs displaced the use of 1 million barrels of #oil a day last year and is set to displace 2.7 million barrels a day by 2030, with a further million barrels to be displaced by #ElectricTrucks by 2035.”

Current situation re electric trucks in Australia, where lots of stuff moves long distances (quoting James Purtill’s ABC article) : “ About a fifth of trucks in Australia are prime movers used for "line haul" long-distance bulk transportation of freight between cities and towns.
“”Battery-powered models are available but have limited applications, Mr Hammond [the Trucking Industry Council's (TIC) chief technical officer] said.
"You'd be lucky to get 300 kilometres on any of the major transport routes before you need probably a two-hour recharge," he said.
More powerful chargers would reduce this time but place a greater strain on the regional power network.
The amount of power required to recharge an electric road train in the space of an hour was about equivalent to that of a small commercial building, which would be more than some towns' spare capacity.
Hundreds of dedicated charging depots would need to be built to electrify intercity freight, and this would be expensive.” [end quote]
