A coalition of car manufacturers, industry groups, infrastructure companies and environmentalists have branded the Victorian government’s proposed electric vehicle tax the “worst electric vehicle policy in the world”.
In an open letter, published as a full-page advertisement in the Age newspaper on Thursday, the group of 25 organisations lashed the state government’s policy.
“This new tax means the world’s manufacturers are far less likely to send Victorians their best, most affordable, zero emissions vehicles,” the letter states. “That makes things much harder for Victorian families who want to buy and drive electric.” ....

'The worst electric vehicle policy in the world': automotive coalition pans Victoria's EV tax | Electric, hybrid and low-emission cars

When introducing its plan to make electric vehicle drivers pay by the kilometre, the Victorian state government said it was about ensuring a fair contribution towards paying for road use, because they werenât paying the fuel excise.
The user-pays system will require drivers to keep a logbook of their travels from July that will then be used to calculate a charge of 2.5 cents/km to be paid when they renew their registration. Records will need to be kept for five years and people who fail to produce records may face charges.
Critics say introducing the policy when the take-up of electric vehicles in Victoria is currently just 0.7% will kill the market before it has the chance to become established. ....

Huge call to ban sale of petrol cars

Victoria should end the sale of all new petrol and diesel cars by 2030 in a dramatic effort to drive down emissions, according to an Infrastructure Victoria panel.
Dubbed the state s largest ever deliberative engagement program , 211 Victorians took part in the month-long workshop series, providing advice on how the state government could encourage more people to take up low or zero-emission vehicles.
The panel delivered 21 recommendations for Victoria s independent infrastructure advisory body to consider, including an end to the sale of all new petrol and diesel cars by 2030 and suggesting new housing developments install electric charging stations.
They also recommended government fleets use electric cars, which could create a second-hand market with lower prices. ....

Infrastructure Victoria panel proposes 2030 ban on new petrol and diesel cars

-
shares
A new survey by Infrastructure Victoria has resulted in 21 recommendations to reduce the state s vehicle emissions – including
banning the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2030.
The community panel – composed of 211 Victorian residents – took part in the month-long virtual workshop in an effort to find ways to accelerate the adoption of low- and zero-emissions vehicles.
The recommendations also suggest more charging stations in public car parks, a community awareness program, planning laws requiring electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, and financial incentives to encourage the transition away from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.
We will assess the recommendations, drawing on additional evidence and research to inform our advice to government on this complex matter as part of the update to Victoria’s 30-year Infrastructure Strategy, Infrastructure Victoria Chief Executive Michel Masson announced. ....

New petrol cars could be BANNED under very controversial proposal by Infrastructure Victoria

New petrol and diesel cars could be banned by 2030 under a state government plan for zero transport emissions.
Infrastructure Victoria s plan risks hurting lower-income earners, with fully-electric car prices starting at $50,000 for a Nissan Leaf.
The state government s proposal, emulating European Union and UK environmental plans, is designed to make electric vehicles cheaper.
But critics say it is out of touch and disastrous for the millions of Australians who cannot afford the pricey vehicles in 2021.
