Electric vehicle manufacturers push for fuel efficiency standards to increase uptake of cars, hit net zero by 2050
Car manufacturers say Australia needs to urgently adopt fuel efficiency standards in line with other countries to help promote the uptake of electric vehicles, warning it will otherwise be unable to reach net zero emissions by 2050.
The federal government last week announced its EV strategy, which includes plans to legislate fuel efficiency standards by the end of the year.
But electric vehicle manufacturers are concerned the fuel efficiency standards do not align with those set by other countries and will hinder the federal government's aim to reach net zero emissions.
