Sales of hybrid vehicles in Australia are outpacing that of electric vehicles, a new report released Tuesday night showed.
Hybrids outsold EVs three quarters in a row, with 95,129 vehicles sold. Electric vehicle sales in Australia sold just 69,593 over that same period, the quarterly EV Index published by the Australia n Automobile Association showed. The report also showed a declining sales trend for ICE vehicles, which fell more than 8% in the fourth quarter of last year, although their overall market share is still 78.18% of total vehicle sales. EVs accounted for 8.
The main concerns that potential car buyers shared regarding electric vehicles include the high cost of the vehicles and a lack of charging infrastructure. And its not just Australia where hybrids are drawing in more attention compared to electric vehicles. Earlier this month, Ford Motor Company delayed its planned rollout of some of its next-gen EVS in favor of expanding its hybrid vehicle lineup.
