    I would imagine that people in the market for an EV would have bought it already last december, before the funding was cancelled.

      I had a BEV on the budget for late this year (move banks to get a low-interest loan + some savings once the mortgage comes off fixed), isn’t practical with the price increase, so will back burner that plan for a couple of years and hope prices drop a bit

      My thoughts too. From memory sales of double cab utes also surged immediately before and plummeted immediately after the prices went up as expected due to their high emissions.

      We had planned a new vehicle late this year, changing the price by $7k makes a huge difference to the calculations.
