Leapmotor News

Leapmotor has responded to alleged camera security risks in its cars in Australia. An ABC Four Corners report revealed Leapmotor vehicles use Dahua cameras, which were removed from Australian federal and defence sites in 2023 and 2025Cameras are a key component of the tech-focused electric car brands such as Leapmotor.They provide more visibility and greater safety for drivers, including features like a 360-degree view camera and are critical in the push for self-driving cars.Former national cybersecurity advisor Alastair MacGibbon told the ABC electric car microphones and cameras are an ideal surveillance device. A spokesperson for Stellantis Australia, parent company of Leapmotor, confirmed to CarsGuide Dahua cameras are fitted in Leapmotor vehicles.They said the brand takes cybersecurity, customer privacy and data protection seriously.Dahua cameras fitted in Leapmotor vehicles are used exclusively to support functionality and safety related features.“The system is not designed to record or store footage as part of its normal operation, nor is it designed to upload camera data to the cloud or transmit it to third parties,” a Stellantis Australia spokesperson said.“Any video recording functionality is customer controlled, and storage requires the use of an external USB device.”Leapmotor vehicles undergo independent cybersecurity assessment and certification, according to the brand.In February 2023 an audit found more than 900 surveillance camera units built by Chinese government-linked companies Hikvision and Dahua were being used in government workplaces.The government said it removed these security cameras due to national security concerns because Dahua is partially owned by the Chinese government and has ties to intelligence laws. The United States and United Kingdom also moved to remove Dahua cameras from its key government infrastructure. 

Two Chinese carmakers have come under fire in Australia for alleged lax cyber security measures and questions over privacy, following investigations from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). Technology in EVs bring an increased risk of surveillance and privacy breaches and potential hacking, with Four Corners showing how easy it was to allegedly hack a BYD Shark 6.BYD has now responded to the ABC's claims, stating the footage does not conclusively show its vehicles are open to hacking without first gaining physical access to the vehicle."The footage from the Four Corners report does not provide conclusive evidence that a remote attack vulnerability exists without physical access to the vehicle. Once unrestricted physical access to the vehicle is established the need for passwords diminishes," a spokesperson said.An ABC investigation uncovered that BYD’s privacy policy said data could be collected "in connection with suspected illegal or improper activities" and that this could be done through "surveillance activities".This broad policy gave BYD significant powers to gather data on owners, and how it could disclose information.The carmaker has since removed all references to China and mentions of surveillance.A spokesperson for BYD Australia told CarsGuide privacy policy changes were not made due to the ABC's investigation."Any inference that the policy was updated in response to the Four Corners investigation is strenuously denied," they said.The company's high-tech credentials mean its vehicles feature lots of camera and other monitoring equipment primarily to improve safety, combined with over-the-air connectivity technology. BYD cars use a driver monitoring system that includes a camera pointed towards the driver to detect any drowsiness or a lack of attention. These systems generate substantial amounts of information about those in the car, what they do and the conversations they have. The Chinese government recently released a raft of new rules to tighten how its carmakers operate in overseas markets.Carmakers are now required to take necessary measures to ensure any data-processing, including collection, use and cross-border transfers must comply with applicable laws. They must also adhere to personal information protection regulations and safeguard consumer privacy. This move is designed to improve buyer trust in overseas markets, but there remains concerns about its application. Australia’s privacy rules allow for data to be transferred to China, so theoretically owner data could be at risk. BYD’s new policy states in the event of personal data transfers to other countries, it will comply with data protection laws regarding cross-border transfers. "We haven't and would not transfer any data of Australians to the Chinese authorities," it said. Companies must still cooperate with authorities when required under national Chinese security rules. A spokesperson for BYD Australia said the brand cannot be compelled to provide owner information because Australian law governs its operations. The ABC also published an article on cybersecurity concerns for new EVs. Cybersecurity expert Dan Hreszczuk was able to remotely access some of a BYD Shark 6’s functions without even needing a password. Hreszczuk said he unpicked the software programs controlling different functions, and could blast music over the speakers, remotely switch the car’s lights on and off, and operate the wipers, among other things. “It’s a little bit scary how open … the BYD Shark is to a hacker,” Hreszczuk told the ABC. A spokesperson for BYD Australia told CarsGuide it was working through its own investigation, and is querying claims made by the ABC."We are taking full and immediate action in reviewing alleged claims and will respond in detail once we have completed our investigation," they said.They said BYD conducts its own simulated cyberattack testing to assess the effectiveness of protections and identify vulnerabilities."In current versions of our infotainment system, third-part apps cannot be installed by users, which helps prevent unauthorised software and potential vulnerabilities being installed on the vehicle," they said.It’s not just BYD making headlines over its in-cabin surveillance.Leapmotor cars feature lots of cameras to provide increased vision and safety for owners, in line with many Chinese EVs.The ABC has reported some Leapmotor models use cameras removed from federal government buildings over surveillance concerns.The cameras in question are made by Dahua Technology, and in 2023, many were removed from federal buildings and defence sites.CarsGuide has contacted Leapmotor Australia for comment to find out which models have Dahua cameras installed in them.Leapmotor currently sells its B10 and C10 fully-electric or hybrid range-extender SUVs, and its B05 hatchback in Australia.It will soon introduce the smaller budget-focused B03X designed to rival some of the most affordable EVs on sale in Australia.

Leapmotor could be a sleeping giant on the cusp of a global sales surge despite its slow start in Australia.Unlike its headline-grabbing rivals BYD, Geely, and Chery, Leapmotor has struggled for traction locally.Yet overseas, efforts to make its model range more globally appealing have granted the brand strong growth which, according to sales data compiled by Nikkei Asia, now means it outsold once-giants like Mitsubishi and Subaru in the most recent quarter of the year.Now projected to sell one million vehicles for the full year 2026, the brand is up 84 per cent globally and is set to surpass both Mitsubishi and Subaru over the same time period.Much of this, Nikkei reports, is down to the brand rapidly carving up markets in Europe where both local giants and Japanese imports are struggling to compete with Leapmotor’s aggressive pricing and rapid rollout with the help of Peugeot owner Stellantis, which has a significant stake in the Chinese fledgling.You could hardly tell in Australia, where Leapmotor has hardly had the same impact as its big-name Chinese rivals.Locally it is up an incredible-sounding 168.2 per cent, but its 1022 units so far is off the back of a very low sales base after the misfire of its original C10 electric mid-sizer, and a slow but improved start for the smaller B10.The C10 has moved 331 units in 2026, down 13.1 per cent, paling in comparison to the very similar Geely EX5 which has managed 10,737 units over the same period, and this is despite the introduction of a range-extender hybrid variant to the range.The B10 meanwhile has moved 677 units locally, against the better-selling Jaecoo J5 which has done roughly 10 times that in fully electric form.Leapmotor’s yearly total of just 1022 units (supplemented by the recent addition of early examples of the B05 hatchback), is a far cry from Mitsubishi’s 30,476 total, or Subaru’s 19,125.However, things can change quickly. Not only has the B10 hugely improved Leapmotor’s sales year-on-year, but Mitsubishi, Subaru, and even Nissan are on the way down in the face of Leapmotor’s contemporaries, which are carving up the top-10-selling new car brands in Australia.Subaru and Nissan have already been booted out of the top-10, while Mitsubishi is barely holding on.Leapmotor, meanwhile will be hoping to capitalise on its momentum for the rest of 2026 thanks to the arrival of its B05 Golf-sized hatchback and B03X compact crossover, which is shaping up to be Australia’s most affordable new electric SUV.When it gets here in the fourth quarter, the brand said it will be priced at around $30,000, drive-away, to undercut natural rivals like the BYD Atto 2, which currently costs $31,990, before on-roads.For 2027 the brand could have more up its sleeve too, with the D19 large SUV. Measuring in at over five meters long and featuring a range-extended hybrid powertrain, it also features EV-sized batteries for big electric driving range and combined power output of up to 300kW/520Nm.Stay tuned for more on Leapmotor’s expansion plans as it rolls out the B05 and B03X for the remainder of 2026.

Leapmotor’s C10 is set to get a big update in 2027 that could help reverse the electric SUV’s fortunes in Australia.The C10 was Leapmotor’s first model to go global beyond China but it has struggled to gain traction in Australia in the face of intense competition.A key Leapmotor executive said an update was coming early next year.“Of course, there might be an evolution of C10 coming in the beginning of next year. I don't know necessarily in Australia, but this is what we are currently discussing.”That’s the word from Danilo Annese, Vice President Commercial Operations Europe Leapmotor International.When asked to clarify what he meant by “evolution”, he confirmed it was not a new-generation car, but rather the update would introduce new hardware and software.“The full model change is something for later on,” he said.“There is a piece of hardware, and of course, software comes with that piece of hardware. But it's not, I don't expect MCA (mid-cycle action) or big facelifts.”Annese did not detail what the changes were, but it could be an update to finally include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in the C10.Leapmotor made the decision to offer the C10 from launch without CarPlay or Android Auto as it wanted to highlight its own native multimedia setup. This is something Tesla has done for years.The Stellantis-backed carmaker has since changed tack, offering Apple and Android connectivity on new models launched since the C10 like the B10 small SUV, upcoming B05 electric hatchback and the forthcoming B03X electric compact SUV.The C10 was just updated in China in June, with Leapmotor rolling out a tweaked look with a new ‘Sky Light’ headlight design, refreshed grille and new colour scheme inside, as well as a tech update including a 60-inch head-up display, 17.3 inch multimedia display and a Qualcomm 8295P cockpit chip as well as another chip for full navigation assistance.It’s unclear if this is the same update that will roll out to global markets in the New Year.The C10 - offered as an EV and a range-extender electric vehicle (REEV) - has failed to make an impact in Australia since its launch, while other newer Chinese brands have had greater success in the medium SUV segment.To the end of August this year, Leapmotor has shifted just 331 examples of the C10, which is a 13 per cent drop over the same period last year. It is one of the slowest selling vehicles in the segment, only outselling the KGM (formerly SsangYong) Actyon, Peugeot 3008 and Skoda Karoq so far this year.Contrast that with rival Geely which has sold 10,737 EX5 EVs and a further 6669 Starray plug-in hybrids in the same period.As well as the lack of Apple and Android connectivity, the C10 has faced criticism relating to its on-road performance. Clumsy tech, poor ride and handing, poorly calibrated throttle response and overly intrusive advanced driver assistance systems are just some of the complaints.CarsGuide contributing journalist Andrew Chesterton lived with a C10 REEV for as a long-term press loan and discovered many of these issues.Whether this coming update addresses any of those key issues remains to be seen.The C10 did not benefit from the same level of scrutiny as subsequent models. Leapmotor International parent company Stellantis launched the C10 soon after setting up the deal with Leapmotor China, without making significant changes to help it perform better on roads outside of China.However, reviewers noted a big improvement with newer models like the B10 and B05, both of which have had engineering input from Stellantis HQ.

Chinese brand Leapmotor will soon have bragging rights with confirmation that its new small SUV will be the cheapest electric SUV available in Australia.The B03X will kick off from about $30,000 drive-away when it lands in the fourth quarter of this year and it will be offered in two model grades.Full pricing and Australian specification won’t be revealed until closer to launch but this indicative pricing is a warning shot to its mostly Chinese rivals that Leapmotor is about to ramp up.The B03X is slightly shorter in length, but roughly the same width and height as a BYD Atto 2 and Jaecoo J5 EV.Currently the BYD kicks off from $31,990 before on-road costs, while the Jaecoo is $36,990 drive-away.Other potential rivals include the Chery E5 ($37,990 d/a) and the new GWM Ora 5 (from $33,990 d/a), while other small electric SUVs like the MG S6, Hyundai Kona Electric and Kia EV3 all start from in the $40,000 bracket.Leapmotor’s other small SUV, the larger B10, kicks off from $37,888 before on-road costs, leaving plenty of space for the B03X as an entry point to the Stellantis-backed carmaker’s line-up.Buyers might also look at small electric hatchbacks like the Geely EX2, BYD Atto 1 and Dolphin, which all undercut the B03X SUV.From launch the B03X is EV only, but Leapmotor International Vice President Commercial Operations Europe Danilo Annese, told Australian journalists the brand has not ruled developing a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) or range extender electric vehicle (REEV) version of the B03X, if there is sufficient global demand.Annese said a number of European countries have requested a hybrid version, adding there were no limitations on the new front-wheel-drive B platform.He said the company could justify the investment if demand came from outside Europe.“Potentially, yes. It's not a measure. We hope that the countries outside Europe will be in the position to justify an investment. This is what we really look forward. If Brazil, if Australia, if Mexico will be on the projected size to justify an investment, why not?“So it does not exclude that we will look into that and try to bring something on a decent timescale. I don't know how long,” he said.Leapmotor offers both battery electric and REEV versions of the C10 mid-size SUV and B10 small SUV, but the incoming B05 hatch is EV only.A further development of the platform is expected with Leapmotor confirming at the B03X launch that it would reveal the international version of the B03 at this year’s Paris motor show in October.Dubbed A05 in China, the B03 is a light b-segment hatchback related to the B03X that will sit under the B05 hatch in its international line-up.However, CarsGuide understands the B03 is unlikely to make it to Australia given the challenges of the light hatch segment.

It has never been cheaper for buyers considering an EV in Australia. Increased demand and more efficient development processes have reduced the prices of electric cars in Australia significantly. Carmakers continue to battle it out to go cheaper than their rivals, with options now appearing below the $30,000 mark.Some affordable EVs are even cheaper than traditional petrol-powered budget examples. The BYD Atto 1 has maintained its title as the cheapest electric car in Australia.The compact SUV starts from $23,990, with top-spec models costing $27,990, both before on-road costs. Until the end of the year, the BYD Atto 1 Essential grade is just $19,990 drive-away, making it not just the cheapest EV but the cheapest car in Australia.The Atto 1’s single electric motor only produces 65kW and 175Nm as standard, while its 30kWh battery is good for more than 200km of driving range (WLTP). The newest member of the below $30,000 club is the Geely EX2, which has already surged towards the top of the sales charts in Australia. The rear-wheel drive EX2 starts from $26,490, with the range-topping variant priced from $30,990, both before on-road costs. The base variant has 60kW and 150Nm from a single electric motor, along with a 35kWh battery offering 252km.GAC will launch a short-range version of its Aion UT in late 2026 that is expected to be less than $30,000, as well. The Atto 1 and Geely EX2 use before on-road costs pricing, so buyers will have to spend an extra up to $5000 on registration and other costs to drive it out of the showroom. The MG4 Urban is the cheaper front-wheel drive sibling of the MG4, available with a sharp drive-away price of $31,990.Its 110kW and 250Nm as standard bests its cheaper competition, while its more than 316km of driving range is hard to look past at its price point. While GAC’s short-range Aion UT is not here yet, the current ‘Premium’ grade starts from $31,990 (drive-away). The Aion UT boasts an electric motor that makes 150kW and 210Nm, besting the MG4 Urban with a quoted riving range of more than 400km from its 60kWh battery.The GWM Ora 5 SUV is available from $33,990, drive-away, as a new cheaper replacement for the Ora hatch.The Ora 5 makes 150kW and 260Nm from its single electric motor.BYD’s affordable EVs continue down the list, with the Dolphin hatchback ($29,990) and the bigger Atto 2 small SUV ($31,990), both before on-road costs. Leapmotor’s B05 is the brand’s cheapest car on sale, and currently is available with a $35,990, drive-away price until 30 September 2026. The B05 is a smaller SUV compared to mid-sized Leapmotor’s B10 with its fully-electric variant kicking off from $38,990, drive-away, also until 30 September 2026. The Jaecoo J5's proportions are on the larger end of the small SUV scale, making it a compelling proposition at $36,990, drive-away. The J5 has had a strong start to life in Australia, and the best-selling small SUV for May 2026. 

Leapmotor is still actively considering developing a ute and Australia is a key factor in whether it will go ahead.The Chinese brand has been open about the possibility of a ute model in the past but it sounds like those conversations are getting more serious.Speaking at the global launch of the B03X compact EV, Leapmotor International Head of Product and Marketing Francesco Giacalone highlighted the importance of the Australian market in Leapmotor’s global strategy before hinting at a possible ute model.“I mean, I don't want to say too many things, but this morning we had a very, very interesting conversation about Australia and what we as Leapmotor can do to create products that fit that market and for which maybe another market there is no demand, and you can guess what type of products they are.”When pressed by CarsGuide if he was talking about a pick-up, Giacalone responded, “I never say so.”But he said there is demand for a ute in some key South America markets as well as Australia, which could prompt Leapmotor to develop a pick-up model.“The regionalisation of our strategy implies that there are demands that, in this moment, are not European centric. Europe is not a pick-up market. Brazil is. Australia maybe.“So of course, Australia right now represents, from a volume point of view, not as such strong arguments to build a standalone car for one market, but within the Leapmotor strategy to go global and be present global - in South America and Brazil is 30% of the market in terms of registration.“So there could be interest to develop that things. But there are a lot of ideas. I mean, the same way there are ideas about vans, the same ideas about even bigger, large SUVs.”Asked if that meant Leapmotor would look at developing a large off-road-focused ladder-frame SUV, to compete with the forthcoming Geely Battleship 700, Giacalone said that was unlikely as it doesn’t fit with the Leapmotor brand.“If it will be in the Leapmotor DNA. Leapmotor will not be the right… is not the right off-road brand. It is not that one. But from a visual design point of view, that direction is being considered.”That means a rugged looking large SUV is on the cards, but without the off-road capability. This could sit above the D19 SUV that the company confirmed would be shown in global spec at the upcoming Paris motor show.If Leapmotor greenlights a ute, it will enter an incredibly competitive segment in Australia that is stagnating when it comes to sales volume.Year-to-date sales figures to the end of August show the 4x4 pick-up segment down by 13.6 per cent, with last year’s top seller, the Ford Ranger in 4x4 guise, down by 12 per cent. The Toyota HiLux 4x4 sales are also down by 6.4 per cent.A number of predominantly Chinese newcomers have failed to fire in the ute segment in the past couple of years, with the JAC T9, MG U9 and related LDV Terron 9, as well as the Foton Tunland all recording modest sales.The BYD Shark 6 has been the clear exception to the rule, becoming a huge sales hit in Australia.More competition is set to arrive soon, too, with Chery’s hyped diesel plug-in hybrid Stockman landing in the coming months, while Geely is also developing a PHEV ute.

Two affordable EVs have learned their safety fate in Australia. The Geely EX2 and Leapmotor B05 electric hatchbacks have provided buyers with some new options in the budget-focused electric car space. They have now both been tested under the Australasian New Car Assessment Program’s (ANCAP) new 2026 protocols.  They are among the first to be tested using the revamped criteria that places a great focus on preventing accidents and safe driving. The B05 is Leapmotor’s newest and most affordable model put on sale in Australia, starting from $35,990 (drive-away). It achieved a five-star overall rating from ANCAP. ANCAP emphasised the hatchback’s strong crash avoidance performance, heaping praise on its lane departure warning and auto emergency braking systems.The watchdog said Leapmotor needed to improve in scenarios involving pedal misapplication and driveway runover risks. The B05 impressed with its crash protection, achieving a 92 per cent rating, with ANCAP highlighting a well-designed vehicle structure and restraints.ANCAP said the B05 demonstrated capability in the safe driving category, which evaluates driver assist features and hazard awareness, but it said there was room for improvement. The Geely EX2 has already proven to be one of the most popular EVs so far, with the compact hatch amassing nearly 500 registrations in August, having only gone on sale in late July. It is priced as one of the cheapest electric cars on sale, starting from just $26,490 (before on-road costs), putting it into competition with the BYD Atto 1 (from $23,990) and larger GAC Aion UT (from $31,990). The EX2 was awarded a five-star rating from ANCAP, with the watchdog praising its monitoring system that detects occupants wearing their seatbelts incorrectly. ANCAP also said its active safety software, including auto emergency braking and lane keep assist performed well, while it wasn’t so successful in some low-speed situations. The EX2 provided good protection in front and side impact collisions despite an elevated risk of driver leg injury in frontal offset testing. Pedestrian and other road user safety was impressive on the EX2, according to ANCAP, praising its small size and increased front crush space in the absence of an engine. ANCAP’s Chief Executive Officer Carla Hoorweg said these results demonstrate cheaper EVs shouldn’t mean they are less safe. “These results show that choosing a more affordable electric vehicle doesn’t have to mean compromising on safety, Ms Hoorweg said.”“The Leapmotor B05 and Geely EX2 have got the fundamentals right, delivering good crash protection, effective crash avoidance technology and important safety features as standard.“With more brands and models entering the Australian and New Zealand markets, safety is another area where manufacturers need to compete.”

Chinese carmakers like BYD, Chery and Geely must now play by new rules in export markets like Australia. The Chinese government is cracking down on alleged anti-competitive behaviour from its automakers overseas, according to reports. The European Union has imposed extensive tariffs on Chinese electric cars imported and sold in the region over the past few years.The EU made this move to stop suspected Chinese government subsidies from heavily undercutting local carmakers in showrooms.Export markets have become crucial for Chinese carmakers, with an oversaturated local market squeezing out profits. Chinese brands have relied on low prices to establish global market share, which has left some domestic automakers scrambling to survive.These rules are designed to ensure Chinese brands won't be pushed out of export markets by tariffs and other penalties from domestic governments.It could also make new markets like the United States more open to Chinese brands.The Chinese government wants to prevent price wars for its brands in overseas markets that harm its reputation. Carmakers must price cars based on production costs and market dynamics, not aggressive price cuts to drive out established competitorsThey should avoid steep or frequent price fluctuations, like heavy discounts that destabilise foreign marketsThey must avoid activities that trigger trade disputes or damage the image of Chinese brands They must not force overseas dealers to set a certain price for cars, instead creating clear price gradients for different model grades. They must follow host-nation regulations and implement anti-corruption safeguardsAll marketing and advertising must be truthful, with no misleading claims on vehicle specifications or performanceCarmakers must follow local information protection and privacy laws These new rules set out clear obligations for Chinese carmakers in their export markets, including Australia. It is unclear if the rules will have a material impact in Australia in the short term.Australia does not have a domestic car industry to protect, so it doesn't need to impose the same heavy tariffs as Europe. This is one reason there are now so many new automakers drawn to Australia.The new rules could potentially see prices of Chinese cars increase, with many models on sale some of the cheapest on the market currently, and extremely competitive with established brands.However recently Chery, one of the most aggressively priced Chinese brands in Australia, dismissed the idea that its pricing was based on outside support, with local boss Lucas Harris saying its current price structure is "sustainable" and that the brand wasn't engaging in activities like dumping cars into our market."I'd love to see some actual evidence" he said, "I'd love a subsidy, it would really help us out."

Sharply-priced deals can be the best way for buyers to get into a new car in Australia. Car sales are surging, with June 2026 an all-time monthly Australian record. Brands continue to put enticing deals on the table, even for their most popular models.From SUVs to utes and hybrid to electric, there are plenty of cars on offer at a cut price. Here are some of the best ones we’ve found. Ford is currently offering $3000 off and five free general services on select Ranger ute and Everest SUV models until the 30th of September. The 2.0-litre diesel Ranger XLT 2WD top-spec dual-cab model is now available from $49,990, before on-road costs. The V6-powered Wildtrak grade of the 4WD dual-cab pick-up is available from $72,090.The 4WD XLS and XLT cab-chassis grades start from $55,450 and $63,590, respectively, as part of the offer. Two grades of the V6 Everest SUV are also eligible for the $3000 discount, with the Sport starting from $73,990, while the Tremor starts from $76,990. These deals are only available on the Blue Oval’s MY26.5 stock.Peugeot is offering some serious discounts on its hybrid SUVs as it parts ways with its local distributor Inchcape. The 2008 compact SUV is available on a drive-away offer of $39,990, with it previously on sale from $42,990, before on-road costs. The mid-sized 3008 starts from $48,990, drive-away, down from $52,990 (before on-road costs). Peugeot’s 5008 large SUV has a drive-away price of $48,990, contrasting its $52,990, before on-road costs, price tag. Leapmotor has put a series of sharp deals on the table for its electrified SUV range until September 30. The mid-sizer C10 range-extender hybrid has a $42,990 drive-away offer, with a $3000 cash-back offer reducing that price to $38,990. The car normally retails from $43,888, before on-road costs. EV versions of the C10 are also available on a drive-away deal of $47,990, with an additional $3000 cash back decreasing the price to $44,990. This is a sizeable discount on the $45,888 before on-road costs starting price. The smaller B10 EV is available from $38,990, drive-away, down from $43,888 (before on-road costs).BYD continues to add competitive deals across its line-up in Australia. Shark 6 cab-chassis and Premium examples are available with a $2500 cash-back until July 31. This reduces before on-road costs pricing on the cab-chassis price to $52,500, and $60,500 on the Premium. The cash-back offer extends to its Sealion 5, Sealion 6 and Sealion 7 SUV range, with the Atto 3 electric SUV eligible for a $2000 cash back. Chery similarly has $2000 cash-back offers on most of its range including the Tiggo 4, Tiggo 7, Tiggo 8 and Tiggo 9 SUVs. This deal is only available until 31 August on cars built in 2025.Nissan has slashed the price of its Navara ute range until August 31. There are heavy discounts on lower grade Navara units, with the base car available from $49,990 (drive-away), down from $53,348, before on-road costs. The range-topping Navara Pro-4X ute is just $63,990, drive-away, compared to its original $68,418, before on-road costs pricing. Existing Nissan customers are also eligible for a $2000 loyalty bonus.
