Actual numbers, not in a video link are your preference? Me too! I'm not a mathematician, but Dec -> Mar looks kinda flat, after a big spike and drop.

To be fair, those look like US numbers while the video is Australian, based on the channel being called 7NEWS Australia.
Yea you clearly didn't watch the video at all, thanks for making that clear. The video description is "Electric vehicle sales in Australia have surged to record levels, with dealerships reporting 25 EVs sold in just three days compared to the usual eight per month. More than 11,000 electric cars were sold nationally in February alone, double the number from the same time last year, driven by petrol prices reaching $2.50 per litre. Both new and second-hand EV sales are experiencing unprecedented demand, with Pickles Auctions reporting a 30% uplift in EV searches as Australians seek to save approximately $3,000 per year on running costs."
Gee, no. Ah It's Australia. Nifty. but why would one wish to watch a video when a graphic would show the same info faster?
Thanks for posting the video intro, you've saved everyone a click!!
