Hon Simeon Brown: The following calculations assume a distance between Auckland and Wellington of 650 km each way and that the vehicles are driven in a way so that the manufacturer-tested fuel efficiency (based on the average recorded values for all vehicles of the relevant model imported in 2023) is achieved over the trip:

Battery electric vehicle $98.80 (RUC)
Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross PHEV $72.80 (RUC) $20.94 (FED) $93.74 (total)
Toyota Aqua $39.78 (FED)
