The Automobile Association says when it comes to EV structure, investment needs to happen ahead of demand.

The AA's pleased with National's promise of 10-thousand public EV chargers over the next four years, a promise that will cost $257 million.

The party would also dump Labour's clean car discount scheme and ute tax. 

Chief Policy Officer Simon Douglas told Kate Hawkesby that big car manufacturers are beginning to invest in electric cars.

He says we'll reach a point where EVs and internal combustion engine cars are equal in price, and things will take off.
