sch.2-sec.108B Electric-powered vehicles

An electric-powered vehicle built after 1 January 2019, or a vehicle modified to be an electric-powered vehicle after 1 January 2019, must have fixed conspicuously to its front and rear number plates a label that complies with subsection (2) . For subsection (1) , a label complies with this subsection if— it is affixed to a plate made of metal that is at least 1mm thick; and the label, and the plate to which it is affixed, is an equilateral triangular shape— each side of which is 30mm in length; and each interior angle of which is 60°; and it has a blue surface that complies with class 2 or 100 of the version of AS/NZS 1906.1 ‘Retroreflective materials and devices for road traffic control purposes—Retroreflective sheeting’ applying to the label at the label’s date of manufacture. it is marked ‘EV’ in white capital letters that are at least 8mm high and have the orientation shown in the example; and it is fixed to the number plates so that the letters on the label are in an upright position; and it does not wholly or partly obscure any characters on the number plates. The example of the label is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the label’s actual size, dimensions or colour. However, this section does not apply to a vehicle to which section 108A applies even if the vehicle is fitted with an electric motor or traction motor that is used in conjunction with a hydrogen fuel system for the propulsion of the vehicle. In this section— electric-powered vehicle means a heavy motor vehicle that is powered by 1 or more electric motors or traction motors that— are the only propulsion system for the vehicle; or are used in conjunction with another propulsion system for the vehicle. sch 2 s 108B ins 2018 SL No. 89 s 39 amd 2019 SL No. 238 s 14 ; 2021 SL No. 9 s 9 (6) (sch.2-sec.108B-ssec.1) An electric-powered vehicle built after 1 January 2019, or a vehicle modified to be an electric-powered vehicle after 1 January 2019, must have fixed conspicuously to its front and rear number plates a label that complies with subsection (2) .
