    Exactly. EVs are effectively coal powered cars. The grid, is the Achilles heel of EVs.

    Although the one thing not discussed is Australia’s pitiful strategic reserves of petrol and diesel ~ around 18 days worth, the last time I checked.
    If an unfriendly nation blocked the fleet of tankers which sail from Singapore to Australia every day, the government would sequester all petrol and diesel for emergency use. All your Porsche’s would come to a grinding halt.
    It is then that the owners of EVs will be grinning. No traffic issues, no parking problems - motoring nirvana.
