Chasing maximum EV range on a novated lease can quietly cost you the FBT exemption that makes leasing worthwhile in the first place. We break down how price and range interact with Australia's EV FBT rules, which price tiers keep the full exemption through to 2029, and how to pick a long-range EV without accidentally pricing yourself out of the biggest tax benefit on offer. General information only, not financial or tax advice.

Searching for the Range Rover's EV range? Here's the honest answer: a fully electric Range Rover doesn't exist in Australia yet. What's currently on sale is the P460e plug-in hybrid, with a modest 126km of electric-only range, not the 400 to 800km you'd expect from a genuine EV. We break down what's actually available today, what the real Range Rover Electric and Range Rover Sport Electric will offer when they arrive in 2027, and what to know before you buy.

The Geely EX2 has landed in Australia as one of the cheapest new EVs on sale, priced from $28,905 drive-away in Queensland, per Geely's official pricing. It was China's best-selling vehicle of any type in 2025, and it arrives here with a rear-wheel-drive layout that's genuinely unusual for this price bracket. We break down both variants, how the EX2 compares to the BYD Atto 1, Dolphin and MG4 Urban, and whether the cheaper Complete or longer-range Inspire is the smarter buy.
