Nexport’s Luke Todd on plans to import four electric vehicle models from China’s BYD, and creating a platform for more EV makers to import directly into Australia.

Todd also outlines the company’s plans for a major EV manufacturing facility in NSW, focusing initially on buses and then vans, but says there is potential to revive a car manufacturing market in Australia.
