wonderful job as always Tom repping and talking all things EV!

[@LudicrousFeed]

Pleasure!

[@iamlsd12]

Thanks Tom loved the snappy short form interviews.

[@LudicrousFeed]

I enjoyed interviewing these awesome people too! 🤩

[@amjedali5164]

Lol saw a glimpse of my bold head in the background. Great event and good presentations by the panels hope it expands for the next event.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Deandzzzzzz]

Feels great to see all these exciting new models and jump into the driver seat. What's even more fantastic is to have a chat with Tom in person. Keep up the good work Tom 😁

[@LudicrousFeed]

Thanks for being part of the show! 🤩

[@lm3718]

Great vox-pops there. It was interesting in the interviews that no one is considering Telsa as their next vehicle - the Chinese brands look like they are really appealing to the Australian market. They are evolving more quickly.

[@LudicrousFeed]

@@lm3718 honestly the Chinese brands anecdotally received the most number of people at their stands

[@AmazingEV]

Hey Tom, thanks for bringing your ludicrously professional hosting skills to the Sydney International EV Auto Show. An extra BIG thanks for coming over to chat with us at AmazingEV and we're glad our EV Rules Rulers helped Mr Cupra get his EV measurements in check!🚙🤩🚙

[@LudicrousFeed]

Pleasure! Thanks for being part of an otherwise awesome weekend 😃

[@GrantWSebastian]

Thanks for the rulers, I was able to confirm the measurements needed, plus now I have a couple of cool rulers. Thanks again.

Agree with your first VoxPop chat, Would love to see more vans/people movers, similar to Honda Odessey or Kia Carnival, more family focused vehicles that can take the beating kids give cars.

[@LudicrousFeed]

The people movers are coming!

[@pmacgowan]

Thanks Tom

[@LudicrousFeed]

🙏

[@StrollingSydney]

Nice! 😊

[@LudicrousFeed]

Thanks! 😄

[@spiro5327]

Interesting listening to peoples opinions, and it seems their is alot of interest in XPUNG. My next car will be the 001 FR if it ever comes here and if I win the lotto, haha. Thanks for posting

[@LudicrousFeed]

That 001 is slick

[@h2rider953]

Fantasic event hope it will put a bubble in EV sales, never ever going back to an ICE car.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Great to hear! 🙌

[@Chris-be1fo]

007 is ZEEKR for me 😊

[@LudicrousFeed]

That performance variant … wow! 💪😃

[@williamvarga4181]

It all looked awesome and thanks for bringing to us. I really hope they showed the P7 or 007 because they are planning on bringing them to Australia. I don’t mind the SUV type vehicles if the driving dynamics are good, but I’d much prefer a good sedan or fastback type and they both look quite good. It would be weird if they brought them in to show without any intention of bringing them to market here. It would be like “Here, look at these awesome models we have. You will never get to drive or own them though, so bad luck on that” 😂

[@LudicrousFeed]

Love me a sedan or wagon 😁

[@gerardy7500]

ICC car park is not cheap. Went to the EV show on Sunday, the Zeekr 001FR is a good looking car.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Sadly the parking rates are par for course in Sydney 😅

[@ControlPro]

@@LudicrousFeed can you charge also?

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yes the public can charge at the NRMA chargers in the carpark

[@aradventuresaustralia1400]

Hi Tom I think the one thing that does need to happen is to have ev shows in places such as Alice Springs and Darwin where ev adoption is slow due to lack of knowledge about the whole ev industry in these areas.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Wouldn’t that be amazing right?

[@aradventuresaustralia1400]

​@@LudicrousFeedYes it would Tom but it really does need to happen

[@beanoyip06]

Any word from Zeekr about the 7X? Really keen on that model.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Apparently confirmed already for Australia!

[@hadtobe4502]

Congratulations on Zeekr stores only mentioned for the Eastern States. The rest.... commiserations.

[@LudicrousFeed]

They’ll come in time

[@nursenerine]

Zeekr is in WA, I’ve tested the X

[@liuyangyang]

AITO M9 next time.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Wouldn’t that be fantastic!

[@troyanderson6180]

I want a Ute that can do at least 1000 km

[@LudicrousFeed]

That day will come … where a full BEV can achieve that kind of range

[@shanshan-wj7of]

Surprisingly, there are audiences from various places. There are many negative comments about electric cars online. I thought only Chinese people or Asians would like electric vehicles.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yeah that's why it's worth attending these expos to see the diversity of the crowd - it's fantastic to see

[@honesty_-no9he]

ACCESSORY SELLERS: A bunch of bottom feeders selling the air you breathe.

[@nursenerine]

Hey Tom, would have loved a female perspective on the show and hear their opinion, maybe next time.

[@LudicrousFeed]

I tried really hard! But a lot of the girls and ladies were too shy to appear 😭 I’ll have to bring Joy with me next time 😍

[@lm3718]

I noticed that as well (and Tom's reply) - it would be interesting for one of the Expos to have a women-oriented session to talk about what women think about EV's, what challenges exist, what is missing etc. I have heard anecdotally that women find some of the EV charging locations to be unsafe, so it would be good to get that out into the open. Needs to be input into design.

[@usmanaftab880]

Thanks Tom

[@LudicrousFeed]

Pleasure!
