On a rainy Sunday morning, our electric ute made it the furthest north it had been (but absolutely not the furthest it will go, by far!) to North Sydney

A bright and early start on Ngunnawal and Ngambri country, we rendezvoused with our media team, Josh and Che from DCS Video. While these two legends set up cameras and microphones inside the ute, the rest of us game-planned the day—it was going to be a big one. 

And as we drove up the Hill, a strange thought popped into my mind: is this the first time you've been to Parliament House since your Grade 5 school trip? I think it is.

The second leg of the Roadshow took us to Canberra, to show the electric ute off to some federal politicians. We left Melbourne on a warm Sunday morning with a full battery, a playlist lined up, and a ribbon of tarmac in front of us. 

My phone went off with a buzz buzz, a message from Ben – he was here. With the tray of our shining blue LDV eT60 loaded up, we were ready to set off on our journey, a trip to the regional centre of Shepparton. “Do you want to drive this first bit?” asked Ben. “Absolutely,” I grinned in response.

And we're off! 

The Electric Ute Roadshow will kick off soon! Check back here for updates.
