Independent powerbroker David Pocock, along with several other MPs from all walks of Parliament, has test-driven a Toyota Hilux ute that was converted into an electric vehicle by a savvy automotive startup launched by two former Atlassian executives.
A startup founded by two former Atlassian senior executives that converts petrol-powered utes into electric ones has announced it'll begin electrifying fleets of Toyota Hilux and Ford Rangers, with prices starting at $48,000 per vehicle.
The first six electric HiLux prototypes have already been manufactured in Roev's Sunshine Coast-based micro-factory, while production plans will see hundreds more of the converted utes hit the road in the next 12 months.
