My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Toyota's vice-president of sales, Sean Hanley, claims that Labor's proposed new family car and ute tax is too aggressive, stating:

I can tell you, from Toyota's perspective, we're not buying credits. We'll pay a fine and pass it on.

When Labor's new family car and ute tax proposes penalties of around $14,900 per Hilux, $11,000 for a RAV4 and $25,000 for a LandCruiser, how can the minister claim the prices of existing cars will not go up?
