AEVA made a submission to this review in which it advocated that technical information for motor vehicle repairs should be as accessible as possible to repairers and to vehicle owners at minimal cost. It also urged that the Scheme should not be used as an indirect means of restricting who can work on EVs.

Once again: Road User Charging must be universal
EV consumer group, the Australian Electric Vehicle Association (AEVA) has once again insisted that any future road user charge (RUC) must be mass-multiplied, and not single out EVs. The federal Treasurer is working on an EV-specific RUC with state treasurers, and plans on trialing a scheme for electric heavy vehicles. Dr Chris Jones, National President of the AEVA says that road user charging is not a new idea, and the AEVA would welcome being part of the discussion. But if the goal is to encourage EV uptake while addressing the limitations of fuel excise, the RUC must be universal, and include vehicle weight.
