Energy Minister being ‘typical’ by spruiking EVs he doesn’t understand the cost of
Sky News host James Macpherson says Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen is acting “typical” by spruiking electric vehicles to Australians while not understanding their costs. Mr Macpherson joined Sky News hosts Caleb Bond and Liz Storer to discuss the new electric vehicle. “If you drive from Sydney to Coffs Harbour in a petrol vehicle towing a caravan it will take you about five and a half hours, you’ll have to stop once for petrol and depending on whether you buy a Coke and a Cherry Ripe it will probably take you ten minutes to stop for fuel,” he said. “If you take one of these electric F-150s towing a caravan, you’ll have to stop at least twice. “You’re up for about an hour each stop if you can get straight onto the charger.”
