Analysts at Bloomberg New Energy Finance have projected a rapid fall in the cost of lithium ion batteries will lead to EVs being as cheap as petrol equivalents by 2025. He said it would come even earlier if possible.Д®lectric vehicles remain on average significantly more expensive than combustion engine cars, though the number of cheaper models is expanding. The British prime minister, the ConservativesвЂ™ Boris Johnson, announced on Tuesday a ban on selling cars that were not fully electric would be brought forward from 2040 to 2035. вЂњGiven that Australian decision makers at all levels are eager to start taking stronger action on climate change, transitioning away from combustion engine vehicles would be an excellent place to start,вЂќ he said. Jafari estimated if Australia offered similar incentives as Europe and China there would be 50,000 new EVs on Australian roads. The Coalition considered introducing the vehicle emissions standards proposed by Labor, which would have required light cars to on average emit 105 grams of CO2 per kilometre, and received advice it would have a net economic benefit, but decided against it. The prime minister, Scott Morrison, accused the opposition of wanting to вЂњend the weekendвЂќ by forcing people out of four-wheel drives, while the minister for small business, Michaelia Cash, told tradies only the Coalition would вЂњsave their utesвЂќ.Д«ut the government has promised its own national EV strategy, to be finalised by the middle of the year, and government agency data has forecast that half the new cars sold will be electric by 2035 even if there is no policy to support their uptake. Labor promised a target of 50% new car sales being electric by 2030. Support for EVs was a significant point of difference between the major parties at last yearвЂ™s federal election. That compares poorly with 3.8% of sales in Europe and 4.7% of sales in China.вЂќ вЂњThe bad news is that even with this strong growth, EVs still only represent 0.6% of sales. вЂњThe good news is that the number of Australians buying EVs is surging despite a lack of government incentives or support,вЂќ the councilвЂ™s chief executive, Beyhad Jafari, said.
