The average Australian spends around 80% of their traveling time going to and from work with very few, if any diversions on their daily trips.

It is our goal at EVAustralia to convince YOU that Electric Vehicles (EV’s) are perfectly suited for a large majority of that traveling.

To achieve this we will take an average small petrol powered car, convert it to all electric and use it for daily commuting to and from work. This will hopefully show you that not only are EV's practical for day to day commuting, they are also easy to make yourself.

Meet the conversion team

Simply put an EV is a car or motorbike that runs purely on electricity. Because they do not burn any fossil fuels they are quite, clean and environmentally friendly.

There are a couple of very good reasons why you should be using them

1) In the long run they can save you money.
2) They produce no pollution while you drive.
3) They are fun.
4) They are a great talking point.
5) Did I mention they can save you money?

Ever wonder how much greenhouse gas your car is generating? For every Litre of petrol you burn you produce the equivalent of 3.18kg of CO2 (this figure factors in the CO2 produced during the refining and transportation process) . Try this calculator to see what the weekly and yearly impact on the environment and your pocket is. The yearly figure assumes 46 weeks of commuting.
