As the world continues to face climate change challenges, it is becoming increasingly critical that we transition to more sustainable energy sources. Renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, is a more environmentally friendly and cleaner alternative to traditional fossil fuels.

Automakers often bring their dirtiest cars to Australia, and don’t offer better and cleaner electric models in the country. But that proposal was watered down by automaker lobbying (which we’ve seen a lot of recently ), primarily through exceptions added for huge SUVs. As a result, the average new car in Australia consumes 6.9L/100km,
