An initial order has been placed for the delivery of the Kona Electric with an extended driving range of 480km. With consumer sales of ZEVs increasing, we can expect to see more makes and models available in Australia, some of which will make their way to the VicFleet Approved Vehicle List.
All 400 ZEVs in the fleet will include a dedicated 7kW charging station that allows the car to be fully charged overnight.
