Comment on Chris Bowen urges motorists not to panic-buy petrol

The world seems to go through this cycle every four years. People buy huge gas guzzling SUVs, war breaks out in the Middle East, gas prices skyrocket, everyone complains and panics. You’d think people would have caught on by now.

At least this time around we’ve got EVs as an option. Obviously if youre unable to afford a new car this doesn’t help, but its something.

You can buy a low end EV for about $25,000 now, which is still a decent chunk of cash but they’re not $65k any more.
It’ll take a couple of years for these to show up on the used car market, but they’re coming.
