Worst government in history. Guess it'll help clear some current dealer stock. A “CARBON tax” on cars that could push up the price of Australia’s most popular vehicles by more than $5000 has been proposed by the Turnbull Government. The Daily Telegraph has obtained the Government’s proposal that outlines the emissions penalties that will be slapped on car distributors who fail to meet the new fuel efficiency target. Car distributors were shocked to receive the proposed model from the Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development’s Vehicle Emissions Team on Monday evening, describing it as more “extreme” than any measures discussed during 18 months of consultation. “This would be one of the most extreme efficiency standards in the world and will lead to car prices going up and motorists having fewer cars to choose from,” Australian Automobile Association chief executive officer Michael Bradley said. |
