Updated:

The Queensland LNP has axed a previous mandate to replace all eligible government cars with “zero emission” vehicles by December 2026.

Instead, the Liberal National Party (LNP) government has released a new strategy that sets a smaller 10 percent emissions reduction target across the entire fleet by 2030, rather than focusing on replacing individual vehicles.
