Arthur Hunt's EV Diary
Arthur Hunt, an AEVA member and long-time EV owner who lives in Yeppoon, Queensland, produces this EV Diary, roughly once a week.
The diary contains his observations on a wide range of EV issues, with a particular eye on his locality, and including:
- new EV models and their features
- Tesla Full Self Driving (FSD)
- new charging infrastucture, and gaps in infrastructure.
Arthur contributed this report on his road trip from Yeppoon to Sydney and return.
