South Australian Government Financing Authority

In reply to the Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (28 July 2021). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer): I have been advised the following:

There were 104 reported sales of new battery electric vehicles in the 2020 calendar year.

For the 2021 calendar year, as at 31 July 2021 there have been 149 reported sales of battery electric vehicles in South Australia.

The official mechanism for reporting new vehicle sales is the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI). Tesla as a manufacturer choose not to report its sales to FCAI, so the vehicle sale numbers exclude Tesla vehicles.
