Stop The EV TAX
Stop The EV TAX
Because there is tax on the usage of Fossil Fuels some people think we need a road tax for electric car usage.
Because there is tax on the usage of Fossil Fuels some people think we need a road tax for electric car usage.
The tax on fossil fuels is not a road tax, like every other country the tax is there to limit the usage of fossil fuels
The current tax on fuel is not used for roads, it is added to the general tax income of the Australian government
The new proposed tax is a way to stimulate more Fuel usage and discourage people who limit fuel consumption
The federal government is planning to introduce a new tax for any car that wants to drive from A to B but doesn't burn enough Fossil Fuels. A road use tax for the Distance between A and B will be applied for those using electricity instead of fuel.

Road user tax for EVs
The Australian government is considering a national road user charge for electric vehicles (EVs) to replace lost fuel excise revenue. To address concerns about this tax, consider the following steps:
Understand the Current Proposals
Understand the Current Proposals
The federal government plans to introduce a road user charge to compensate for the decline in fuel excise tax revenue as more drivers switch to low- and zero-emission vehicles.
Details are still being discussed, but the charge is expected to be a per-kilometre tax on EV drivers.

Support Organizations Advocating for EV-Friendly Policies
The Australian Electric Vehicle Association (AEVA) is already advocating for a universal, mass × distance road user charge, which they believe would be more equitable.
Consider supporting organizations like AEVA or signing petitions that promote EV-friendly policies.
Key Points to Discuss

we are working with leading EV organisations. But we need more!!!
We started this initiative is to prevent the federal government to tax a minority of people and companies who are helping to achieve the national goal of 43% reduction in net greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 (compared to 2005 levels) and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

The two main goals setup by Australia to address climate change.

This additional tax is not helping anyone! We all know that the roads are not build by the tax on fossil fuels and it's not practical to have a tax for people who use less fossil fuels (or no fossil fuels).
We need to stimulate people driving low emission cars and not penalise them!
In Australia there is an uptake in electric vehicles, but we are still years behind other countries because of previous policies. As such the EV owners are a minority and it wouldn't be fair to double tax them
Yes there is a tax on electricity and we are being charged beyond what is reasonable by the government electrcity companies. There is no reason for another tax on the energy taxes we are already paying
A lot of people and companies have invested in electric vehicles or facilities to help (charge) EVs. They have been told that rebates and help would be provided by the Australian government! it would not be fair to give them a subsidy on the purchase, but charge them more for the usage of their car!
Make sure to watch these movies to get a better understanding on what is happening!
