Late to the party on EV incentives and decent charging infrastructure, only in the past two years have EV sales really made a dent in the Australian market. These tiny i-MiEVs were the first EVs on sale in Australia in 2010. They barely registered a sale in Australia, but these cute little Zoes did solid numbers in Europe.

Speaking of home battery solutions, GM Energy also plans to sell one of those, though that unit won’t be for sale until later this year (same with solar integration, which will also come this year). That’s important, because the system isn’t cheap. Batteries will be available in 10, 17, and 35kWh packages.

Last year Oregon had also aggressively negotiated with the Chinese carmaker, BYD , to manufacture its line of plug-in hybrids in the state for sale in the U.S.) Furthermore, changing the battery pack on say a Toyota Prius often costs a fortune, at least in most European countries, so such cars better be VERY cheap, but they’re not.
