Ozzie EV sales pick up

 Australia's EV sales have stagnated for two years, despite increased incentives from the government, but over the last few months, sales have started to rise again.  Tesla sales have increased, especially in May, with the "refreshed" version of the Model Y now available in Australia.  BYD Dolphin sales have jumped, and seem to have cannibalised sales of other BYD models, but also to have taken sales away from other EV marques.  The cheapest "entry-level" BYD Dolphin costs about the same as the cheapest non-hybrid Corolla.  Tesla has been the top-selling EV brand in Australia, but I think by the end of the year BYD will be just behind

The data come from The Driven, and as far as I can determine, do not include plug-in hybrids, which have been doing well, as the charger network in Australia still leaves much to be desired.  (To be fair, the fast charger network has doubled over the last year.)  However, the incentives to buy PHEVs will end on 30th June, so we should see some demand switch back to full EVs.
