There’s definitely a market for EV here in Australia. We’re contemplating an EV to replace the Mazda 2 when it’s time to replace it.
Interesting, I thought Yank truck buyers were more into rolling coal.

Especially good in Lockdown with a 5km radius . Range Anxiety a non issue.
Since my EV Landy conversion 4 years ago I can't remember the last time we put petrol in my wifes car, its a 2015 model and only done 10,000km , but need it for longer trips if we ever need to run to Melb or Sydney ( unlikely) It just sits in the garage, on the other hand done 18,000km in the Landy now as a daily driver / local runabout.
As they say, electric utes like that have a significant packaging advantage over ICE vehicles because IC engines are so large.
As an example, the Rivian SUV is about the size of my D4 (and from the rear quarter view has an uncanny similarity) but, unlike the D4, when all 7 seats are in use there's still the frunk that can take luggage.

A lot of government F series also and President Biden has instructed all federal agencies to buy EVs.
Maybe they need some to replace those left somewhere recently.

We are keeping the Defender forever for towing the van, so the Mazda 2 is perfect for tootling about.
With 6.8kW of solar on the roof, charging an EV 2 would not be a problem.
Their MX-30 EV looks good, but it's larger and more expensive than we need.
