if Ford, Toyota and all the other manufacturers want to avoid any penalty, they only need to send us cars that they send to all other countries.
only Aus and Russia have had such poor emissions standards. crikey it was only 15 years ago that Aus had among the highest pollution control standards. but 9 years of Lib management enable Aus to lower its standards to be alongside Russia in the pollution levels.
but the Albanese policy doesn't impose penalties on any single model of car. its the total emissions for the entire fleet of cars they send Aus. they then pay a penalty for exceeding that sum. in this way gas guzzling Rangers and RAMS can come here free of penalty as long as they also send enough low emissions vehicles in the full range of cars our buyers import.
