Australians love big cars, and it's undoing the good work of the shift to more electric and hybrid vehicles.

    Yeah, if it was simply environmental, then maybe there could be some sort of offset scheme introduced. However unlikely it would be to actually make it to 1:1.

    But adding the extra, and unnecessary, road danger, yeah… old mates weekend can go stick it.
