That's a very special case where EV is not suitable. The 2200 km in 26 hours you mention is very far from legal driving in most countries. Here you need resting periods, and AFAIK you can't legally drive more than 11 hours per day as a professional, so that trip would take 2 days here anyway, unless it's something you do for fun?
So here (EU) that trip would in fact be possible with an EV with little loss of time, because of the mandatory resting periods, but maybe in Australia there wouldn't be the necessary infrastructure to charge on such long trips.
