Price will be one factor, it won't be cheap. And then there is the reluctance of people in this country to consider EV's. They only make up less than 0.5% of sales.
I reckon they should give it a go here though. Get in early and build a following. Rather than wait till EV's are more widely accepted and be a late entry.
Maybe they will see how the PHEV Escape goes first?

Agreed, would be great to see it here.
The other issue here in Australia is government policy around EVs and other powered cars outside of fossil fuels. For EVs we need to really get the government in there to set a standard for charging and may be subsidise the rollout of charging stations.
