Support for the Clean Car Discount and the National Party’s Plan to Scrap It w/ Rob Birnie: 16 November, 2023

In the past year, New Zealanders have purchased a record number of pure electric vehicles at over 24,000, along with 88,000 hybrids, according to the Ministry of Transport. The new government has stated their intentions to scrap the Clean Car Discount along with the Ute Tax from December 31st.

Beth spoke with Volunteer at Better NZ Trust Rob Birnie about national support for the Clean Car Discount, and began asking him if he thought the Clean Car Discount had influenced people’s decision to purchase a pure electric vehicle or hybrid.
