Comment on Labor will announce home battery rebate in “coming days,” says federal treasurer

  Dude. I’ve provided the receipts with literally every post. You have provided nothing. Give it up already, you are ideologically hamstrung and unable to accept that you are wrong.

    You haven’t provided receipts, you’ve provided baseless pro-EV guesses and terribly inaccurate guesstimates.

    You still can’t accept that buying a second hand EV, especially one out of warranty, is a massive risk.

      Given the EV market is barely a decade old, I think it’s a bit soon to make such ridiculous claims, that myself and others have given many, many sources of facts (not feelings, which is literally all you are providing).

      It’s clear you are quite happy being influenced by scary propaganda c/o the oil industry - you’re still living in 2019 in Scummo’s “ruined weekend” land.

      And having a peek at your other activity, I’d like to echo some others opinions - you really don’t belong here, maybe just leave, troll. You are tedious and just seem to want a fight with anyone who will take your bait. Boring.

        From the article you linked:

        “Factors contributing to used EV sales trends cited by the report authors included:

        • The implementation of the FBT exemption in November 2022 that potentially prompted EV owners to acquire new vehicles, contributing to an increase in the availability of used EVs. 
        • Uncertainty surrounding battery health of used EVs deterring some potential buyers.
        •  Pricing of new EV models coming down, negatively impacting used EV prices.

        The authors of the report did caution the EV pricing findings were volatile because of the small amount of vehicles involved.”

        I would say the biggest issue is likely that new EVs are coming rapidly down in price, with longer range, so a second hand EV is comparatively not as good value currently. Many people are waiting for slightly bigger batteries or different types of ev, and I’ve seen at least half a dozen BYD Sharks on the road, one I talked to the guy had literally bought it yesterday, and many of them are getting tax benefits to buy new.

        You are making out it’s all about battery concern where there’s much more going on.

        So, you’re a moderator in a politics community, and you troll in various places on Lemmy, and like to threaten if you are challenged. Interesting.

        Can’t help wondering if the other mods here might want to look into whether that’s a good thing… or not.

        You posting pro-ev site propaganda sources doesn’t help your cause lol

        People don’t want second hand EVs precisely because of the battery warranty issue.

        I don’t even need to look at your profile to know that you’re like a Bowen loving “renewables” grifter.

        What’s hilarious is like I said way back at the start of this - my next car will be an EV, likely a Tesla. I’ve been a fan of them and following closely since the roadster. You ignore that though because I don’t just blindly ignore all inconvenient truths about them.
