will all cars be electric by 2030

No—by 2030, not all cars will be electric, and your neighbour’s clattery ute will likely still be waking the magpies.

EVs should be a big slice of new sales in many markets, but fleets turn over slowly—cars stick around 10–15 years.

Plenty of regions target bans on new petrol/diesel sales around 2035, not 2030, and Australia is only just rolling out fuel-efficiency standards.

Expect a mixed traffic jam: more EVs, heaps of hybrids, and a stubborn rump of internal-combustion commuters.

So no apocalypse for servo snacks yet—just a steadily growing queue at the chargers.
