'An Aussie family is on a mission to change how road trips are done by
embarking on an "all electric" camping expedition. The McLennans have vowed to
bust the myths around Australia's so-called flawed EV charging network by
proving it's entirely possible to travel long distances — all without breaking
down.
Tim and Renee McLennan, from Bassendean, WA, say there are many
"misconceptions" about electric vehicles, which they believe are an important
step in finding a solution to the climate crisis. Although Australia is
"lagging behind" when it comes to transitioning to EVs, they say an "all
electrified" nine-month trip is "completely doable".
The couple, along with their kids, Ellie and Xavi, have embarked on a 15,000km
road trip covering the traditional "big lap" route, starting in Perth and
travelling clockwise around the country. Instead of the standard highway route,
which has been done by EVs before, "we're trying to push boundaries a little
bit just to see more where we want," Tim told
Yahoo News Australia from the
road — with remote and rural areas high on the list of places to visit.'
