Show Notes
Electric trucks surge in sales, with March 2026 marking a record 44 units sold, a 500% increase from February. China leads the market with over 230,000 electric trucks sold last year. Affordable second-generation models are now available in Australia, driving companies to switch from diesel to avoid future price spikes. While urban last-mile trucks are ready for electric transition, long-haul trucks face challenges due to lack of charging infrastructure. The government is fast-tracking Australias first zero-emission freight hub, but experts warn were behind China without stronger policy pushes. Despite diesels dominance, the sales surge and price parity indicate a greener future for trucking.
