Ep 3: Electric Trucks, Flash Charging and Australia's Heavy Vehicle Revolution | GoEV

Australia's heavy vehicle charging infrastructure is about to change. And the window to act is now. In this episode of the Carloop Podcast, I sit down with Mark Lampard, Managing Director of GoEV, to unpack the real state of fast charging and heavy vehicle electrification in Australia in 2026. From flash charging technology to electric trucks on the Hume Highway, this is the conversation the transport and logistics industry needs to hear. We cover: ⚡ Why 300 kilowatt plus charging is becoming the new baseline for public DC infrastructure 🚚 Why electric trucks are ready for metro delivery right now but line haul is still 20% short on range 🔋 How flash charging and battery augmentation are solving Australia's grid connection problem 🏗️ Why cement, quarry and construction equipment is the next wave of electrification 🇨🇳 What China's transport sector looks like today and why it matters for Australia tomorrow 🛣️ Why logistics companies will switch to electric trucks purely on cost, not ideology 📊 What Arena funding for Toll, LinFox, Mondo and Sono signals for the heavy vehicle market In China, 25% of all heavy trucks sold last year were fully electric. Australia's passenger EV market followed the same trajectory. The heavy vehicle transition is not a question of if. It is a question of when. Mark also shares what he expects to see on his upcoming China trip, why flash charging could redefine how we think about infrastructure investment, and what Australia's trucking industry needs to do right now to stay ahead.
