Every electric car available in Australia

Every electric car available in Australia.

It should be fairly clear by now. EV cars available in Australia aren’t going anywhere. They’re going everywhere.

In fact, there will come a time when buying an EV won’t be an option, but a necessity. Several countries have set target dates to ban the sale of internal-combustion engine vehicles (the closest being 2025 in Norway) and a swathe of car companies have pledged to go all-electric in the near future.

There are predictions that 40 per cent of all new car sales globally will be EVs by 2030 and Australia is well on the way there.

Starting from a very low base just a few years ago, 7.2 per cent of passenger vehicle sales here were EVs in 2023, a total of 87,217 units. Sure, it’s a drop in the ocean compared to the 5.34 million electric vehicles sold in China in the same period, but it is also up 120 per cent on 2022 in Australia.

The delayed but accelerating uptake in Australia has a few contributing factors. Unlike other countries such as Norway, where 82.4 per cent of passenger vehicles sold in 2023 were EVs, our federal and state governments have offered a limited array of incentives to encourage EV uptake from consumers.

That initial lack of demand led to high prices for EVs here, as well as reticence from some car companies to release EV models to the Australian market. 

But with some state-based incentives coming online, and an array of low-cost options arriving from China, the number of electric cars available in Australia is rapidly increasing and so are sales in 2024.

This trend is set to continue, as EV demand begins to hit saturation points and starts to plateau in many markets around the world.

New tariffs from the US and Europe on affordable electric cars from China also mean Australia will become an attractive export market for the world’s largest builder of EVs, and the just-passed new vehicle emissions standards (NVES) will mean many automakers will be incentivised to sell more EVs in Australia.

As a result, the number of options on the Australian market has exploded from just 31 EVs in 2022 to roughly 80 not including light commercial vehicles.

If we were to tick off all the electric cars that are for sale in Australia you’d have quite an unwieldy list. So, for the sake of brevity we’ve only included all-electric vehicles, although there are a considerable number of hybrids and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) available here, too.

Also what you won’t find on this list of electric vehicles are discontinued models (like the Renault Zoe EV or BMW i8) or models that haven’t been 100 per cent confirmed for Australia yet (e.g. the Tesla Cybertruck, Rivian electric ute, or Nissan Ariya).
