Interesting. But if Meunier really understands the Oz market - will the 4xe need plugging in in the outback or is that only EV? Pity they aren't keeping the diesel for our market.

It’s primarily a hybrid, so I’d expect range to be phenomenal. EV range is only around 40km as I understand it

interesting, i read that the EU has already flagged hybrid ev as a polluting technology after 2030.
As mentioned, only real way to go here in Australia is hydrogen fuel cell.
I see toyota and hyundai have formed a partnership re hydrogen fuel cell and toyota have just released a comercial hydrogen model.

The new horse drawn vehicles are even better on emissions.
