Yes, kei cars are very popular there but our culture and roads are very different. It’s the same as Europe where there are tiny streets where only tiny cars can go down. And of course a lot more people (and cars) in much smaller countries.

There is an argument to ditch fuel excise and replace with weight based road user fees. This would discourage oversized battery electric cars also (I don’t disagree with this!)

The cult of large cars, and increasingly larger, in Australia is going to be a tough nut to crack

Already have a 22 model but I’d consider it? I like the roof but it is extra hot in summer (yes, I use climate to counter that)

Weird that they didn’t add that at the top. Now I look on desktop the choice (erp) is there after hitting Estimate, but it’s right at the bottom on mobile - bad UI
