RE: BMW blackmails the Australian public over EVs
I was going to buy an i8 but I can tell you right now I'll never purchase a BMW after this type of news, thanks for posting.

The crazy thing is BMW already have an extensive network of dealers and service centre around Australia that they could quickly and easily use to deploy a charging network. Tesla don't have that, they literally started from zero. BMW could even monetise the charging network if they wanted to (because electric cars require far less servicing so that part of their income is bound to decrease over time). I really can't understand why they require government (i.e. tax payer) funding just to sell products that people are queuing up to buy. It's madness.
