They are funding charging stations, and the networks are pretty decent now for long trips.

There's still holes that need filled in, especially when you get away from population centres and main roads, but you can drive from Port Douglas in far north Queensland to Adelaide in any new EV.

Adelaide to Perth is currently a no. There's a 2000km stretch with one fast charger. Not impossible, but it means several days of slow charging along the route.
