MMAL is committed to being a responsible corporate citizen and a key contributor to Australia’s economy throughout this transition. In recognition of the importance of immediate climate action, we have embedded sustainability as one of our core strategic pillars — because we intend to be here for the long term. We believe in leveraging technological solutions to combat climate change and are deeply invested in developing innovative approaches to reduce vehicle emissions. We are committed to ensuring that middle Australia — our core market — is not left behind during the energy transition, particularly in rural and regional areas.
Our Election Charter outlines six policy considerations, including recommendations. We believe that implementing these will help Australia achieve our climate goals, through a balanced and inclusive approach to meet the diverse needs of our country’s regions and industries:
- Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles (PHEVs): A sustainable solution for Australia’s vast geography
- Harmonising global standards: importance of safety and affordability
- Bi-directional charging: Powering homes, strengthening the grid
- EV infrastructure development: A collaborative, multi-stakeholder approach
- Consumer trust: Protect market integrity and data
- Skilled workforce development: The engine of the energy transition
Mitsubishi Motors Australia is committed to engaging with all political parties ahead of the 2025 election to discuss the priorities outlined in this charter. We believe that collaboration is key to achieving a cleaner, safer, and more prosperous future. Together, we can drive meaningful progress for our industry, communities, and shared environment, ensuring a practical and economically sustainable path toward the future.
