"'(Battery electric vehicles) make sense right now in places like Norway where most energy is renewable and incomes are high but Australia is not Europe,' he said.''

so, Australia doesn't have high incomes ------- someone has worked out that Australia is a poor country at last - and not Europe eh?

And as far as not suitable, but Norway is -

well, Oslo has about 600,000 people and they don't use cars as much as ozzies -

but Sydney has 5.3 million people and cars belching gas everywhere every day

Melbourne has 5 millions people belching gas cars every day

so, I reckon that Australia - aside from being poor - is probably better suited for EV's ---

car addicted, packed cities -------------- sounds more like EV country to me

Why do you not see the differences with Norway?

Australia is 20 times as large as Norway and is decentralised, so travelling through remote areas with an electric vehicle is impractical.

Also, Norway has a sovereign wealth fund that is enriching each citizen to the tune of over $200k each. In Australia our 20million citizens share a debt of over $500billion.

So there you go, big difference with Norway nah!
