Electric vehicle rebates
Electric vehicle rebates
As federal and state governments work towards climate targets, you might be eligible for rebates, tax credits, or subsidies when buying an electric vehicle, saving you money as you transition to electric.
Lower running costs
Lower running costs
The cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour (kWh) is significantly lower than the cost of fuel per litre. This can help you save on the cost of running your vehicle, especially over the long term. For those customers who have solar power at home, this can reduce the costs even further.
Reduced maintenance
Reduced maintenance
All-electric vehicles have fewer moving parts than an internal combustion engine vehicle. This reduces the need for regular maintenance like oil changes, replacing spark plugs, or transmission fluid changes.

Is there an electric vehicle rebate available in Australia?
Yes, several Australian state and territory governments offer rebates, stamp duty exemptions, or other incentives for purchasing eligible electric vehicles. These incentives vary by location and can significantly reduce the upfront cost.
Are there federal government EV incentives available currently?
While specific federal rebates for EV purchases may vary, the Australian federal government supports EV uptake through various policies and infrastructure investments. It's best to check official government websites for the latest information.
Are electric vehicles cheaper than ICE vehicles?
While the upfront purchase price of EVs can sometimes be higher than comparable ICE vehicles, EVs typically offer lower running costs due to cheaper "fuel" (electricity) and reduced maintenance. Over the vehicle's lifespan, the total cost of ownership can be competitive or even lower for EVs.
Are there hidden costs of EV ownership?
Generally, EV ownership has fewer "hidden" costs than ICE vehicles, with no oil changes or complex engine maintenance (for fully electric vehicles). However, factors like home charger installation and potential higher electricity bills (if not managed efficiently) should be considered.
