ELV program update

Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries/Motor Trades Association of Australia Product Stewardship End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) program update

MTAA-member dismantlers from across Australia are providing data sets that will help inform the Australian Government of the processes and infrastructure that may be required to decommission the more than 797,000 vehicles that leave our roads annually.

With the drive to transition the national fleet to zero and low emission vehicles ramping up, the number of internal combustion engine vehicles that will become ELVs will grow significantly. Australia needs an ELV program in place to handle the demand and avoid environmental disaster.
