A new NRMA survey of more than 42,000 members found that 75% of ICE drivers consider rising fuel prices a bigger concern than EV range anxiety. Meanwhile, 68% of EV owners identified charging infrastructure as their main concern, even as 92% say EV travel is easy and 72% plan a road trip within the next year.
🔋 Why It Matters
With electrified vehicles reaching 49.16% of new-car sales in Australia in Q2, EV adoption is accelerating while charging infrastructure remains a key priority.
