More than 140 of the Commonwealth's low mileage, diesel-powered luxury BMWs will be churned back onto the second-hand market in the next 18 months as a result of the Federal government's ramped-up plans for a major electric vehicle fleet transition.
Federal Minister for Climate Change and Energy Chris Bowen, who drives a Tesla Model3 electric vehicle as his personal transport, has pledged to transition 75 per cent of the federal government's 10,000-strong fleet of internal combustion vehicles to electric as they begin to come off their customary three-year leases.
