Chery says its new Lepas L2 hatchback will be nothing like the cheap electric cars filling showrooms today. It lands in Australia in 2028, the powertrain is still up in the air, and here is what buyers should actually take from the hype.
MG has put a price on the U9 EV, and at $78,990 it is not cheap. Australia is the first market in the world to get it, so here is what your money buys, how it compares to the diesel, and where dealers will try to squeeze you.
BYD has confirmed Australian pricing for the M9 plug-in hybrid people mover, from $61,990 before on-road costs. It does not undercut the Kia Carnival everywhere, so here is where it wins, where it loses, and how to buy either one without overpaying.
BYD has dropped the Atto 1 to $19,990 drive-away, the first time a full electric car has become the cheapest new car in Australia. It undercuts petrol stalwarts on the road, not just on paper. Here is the buyer reality behind the headline price.
Australia's best selling plug-in ute has been hit with a major safety recall. BYD is calling back 32,009 Shark 6 utes because the spare wheel can come loose and fall off while driving. Here is what owners need to do, and what it means if you are shopping for one.
MG has knocked $2,000 off the MG4 EV Urban, making it the cheapest new electric car you can drive out of a showroom in Australia. But the deal ends 30 September, and a sharp national price is only half the battle. Here is what you actually get and how to keep dealers honest.
Toyota Australia will now sell you a factory-backed secondary immobiliser for the LandCruiser 300 and Prado 250, fitted for $1735. It is a genuine response to a real theft surge, but it is a deterrent, not a guarantee. Here is what it does and whether it is worth paying for.
Leapmotor says its new B03X small SUV will start from about $30,000 drive-away when it lands in the final quarter of 2026, making it the cheapest electric SUV in Australia. Here is how it compares to the BYD Atto 2, GWM Ora 5 and Jaecoo J5 EV, and what to watch before you sign.
Audi has slashed Q6 e-tron pricing in Australia, dropping the electric SUV to $89,900 and the SQ6 by more than $21,000. The new entry price is no accident, and there is a dealer catch worth knowing before you sign.
Ford has stretched its new-car warranty to seven years across the whole range, from the Ranger to its new electric vans. The headline sounds great, but it only holds if you service at a Ford dealer. Here's what the catch really means for your wallet.
Australia's best-selling ute just had its weakest month since 2022, but not because buyers walked away. An airbag recall froze deliveries, and that changes the game for anyone shopping a Ranger right now.
The Pajero is back after five years, and Mitsubishi has priced it to steal Prado and Everest buyers. Here is what the three grades cost, what you get for the money, and how to buy one without handing the dealer a fat finance margin.
