My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Last year, the minister showed off Australia's first EV ute, the LDV eT60. The managing director of drive.com describes the eT60 as having an effective range of only 150 kilometres for tradies, which doesn't work for people in rural areas on the urban fringe, people who tow or people who live on farms. Can the minister confirm that the eT60's price tag of $92,000 is nearly double the price of the diesel alternative?
