EV Channels Review

This episode of Ludicrous Feed Live focuses on Australia's record-breaking EV sales, which hit 8% of all new car sales in April 2023, placing the country on par with global averages. The hosts and guests highlight Tesla's strong performance, with the Model Y making the top five best-selling cars overall. BYD also shows significant growth, delivering over a thousand vehicles. The discussion delves into the improved accuracy of sales data, now reflecting actual deliveries rather than dealer stock. Challenges remain, such as the naming conventions for EV models within mixed ICE/EV lineups, which can obscure EV sales figures. The conversation also touches on the dynamic pricing of EVs, the growing used EV market, and the critical need for expanded charging infrastructure, particularly in regional areas, with a positive outlook on new Tesla Supercharger sites opening across Australia.
