Honda has put a price on its first EV for the Australian market. The Super-One launches in Japan from the equivalent of $30,000, and Australian arrival is locked in for the second half of 2026 to chase BYD Dolphin and Hyundai Inster buyers.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has thrown public support behind Australian EV manufacturing, mourning the loss of Holden in the process. The reality on the ground is more nuanced, but a small local industry is quietly still alive.

One of Australia's cheapest sedans is on shaky ground. MG 5 sales are down 77 per cent in 2026 and MG Australia is openly pointing buyers towards the much pricier MG 7. Here is what is going on and what cheap sedan buyers should do next.
Denza is BYD's premium sub-brand and the B5 is essentially the tougher, more capable cousin of the Shark 6 ute. Low range, diff locks, twin lockers, and a proper 4WD wagon body. Here is how it stacks up against the Shark 6 and what it means for Aussie PHEV buyers.
