We show you the best end of financial year deals in effect for the Australian electric vehicle market
With petrol prices on the rise, and electric vehicles getting cheaper year-on-year, keen-priced end of financial year deals may be the deciding factor for many Aussies considering their first EV.
We’ve scoured dealer websites and our inside sources to find you the best EV deals so you don’t have to. While discounts usually vary between $1000-$5000, some automakers are offering driveaway discounts in excess of $10,000!
We’ve focused on cash price, drive-away discounts to give you the clearest indication of savings. Where applicable, we’ll point out the ‘extra bits’ dealers are throwing in, too – from service plans to free charging cables.
All prices shown in this article are driveaway and apply to current MY26-plated new vehicle stock unless stated otherwise. Where applicable, car makers’ best discounts have been highlighted in bold for reader convenience.

Without further delay, here’s the Chasing Cars guide to the best EOFY discounts for EVs currently on sale in Australia.
Both of Audi’s premium electric SUVs — Q4 E-Tron and Q6 E-Tron — receive discounts for the end of financial year. Audi’s offer is not a fixed price and applies to vehicle prices before on-road costs such as dealer delivery, registration, Luxury Car Tax (LCT) and CTP insurance.
Both the Q4 and Q6 receive discounts equal to the LCT applied to the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). This means the base model Q4 receives no discount, as it is not eligible for LCT.
| Model | Price (RRP) | EOFY Price (RRP) | Saving ($AUD) |
| Q4 E-Tron 55 Sportback | $99,990 | $97,409.1 | $2,580.90 |

Chery-owned Jaecoo has seen great success with its first dedicated electric vehicle – the Jaecoo J5 EV. It’s likely the Chinese automaker is looking to further that success, driving a $2278 discount on an already competitive $39,268 entry-point to start from $36,990 DA.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
| J5 EV | $39,268 | $36,990 | $2278 |

We’re big fans of MG’s electric cars, all of which benefit from a specialised UK suspension tune and feature big ticket items like large infotainment screens, comfortable interiors and pleasant, well-calibrated driver safety aids.
Only the small-to-medium size MG S5 electric SUV has been discounted for EOFY, a formidable car which platform-shares with the recently launched MG S6 medium SUV, MG4 EV hatch and MG Cyberster bespoke EV roadster.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
| S5 Essence 49 | $43,990 | $41,990 | $2000 |
| S5 Essence 62 | $48,990 | $46,990 | $2000 |
Both cars additionally offer a $500 accessory bonus to be used within the dealership. The additional $500 cannot be redeemed for cash or used to reduce the vehicle’s purchase price.

When pairing EV and Nissan, most people think of the Leaf, which debuted in 2010. Since then, the Leaf name has been sidelined for the Australian market, and the lesser-known Ariya has been rolled out in its place.
The Ariya is Nissan’s only EV — a medium SUV notably criticised for its delayed local launch and abrupt ride quality. Perhaps its EOFY discounts will make it more attractive, available in conjunction with Nissan’s finance offers.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ariya Engage 63kWh | $60,478 | $53,990 | $6488 |
| Ariya Advance 63kWh | $64,678 | $59,678 | $5000 |

A growing player in the EV space with a range of lavishly-equipped, dynamic cars, bespoke EV-only brand Polestar could be one to keep an eye on this end of financial year.
Polestar’s discounts aren’t quite as clear as their competitors, but its potential savings are huge. The Swedish-based, Chinese assembled company is offering $10,000 off pre-built Polestar 4 inventory (covers MY25 and MY26) and a fixed $5000 discount for pre-built or dealer ordered Polestar 2 models.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 (MY26 Long Range Single Motor)* | $85,843 | $75,843 | $10,000 |
| 2 (MY26 Long Range Single Motor)* | $74,437 | $68,662 | $5,000 |
*Polestar’s discounts span a large variety of 4 and 2 variants. An example of each vehicle has been provided purely for illustrative purposes, and may not represent available discounts.

Toyota is comfortably Australia’s most popular car maker, yet locally offers just one electric vehicle – the bZ4X medium SUV. The electric midsizer spans three trim grades — FWD, AWD, and Touring — with only the middle-spec all-wheel drive benefiting from EOFY discounts.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| bZ4X AWD | $73,648 | $66,148* | $7500 |
*Toyota’s discount only applies when buying through Toyota Finance and is applicable to new and demonstrator bZ4X AWD models. An MY26 AWD model is provided in the table.

Both of Volkswagen’s medium electric SUVs — ID.4 and ID.5 — receive various discounts for the end of the financial year, with MY25 plated vehicles seeing reductions as great as $5888. The quirkier ID. Buzz has also been discounted, exclusively in Pro passenger-vehicle grade.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| ID.4 Pro MY25 | $65,878 | $59,990 | $5888 |

Originally pledging to be a fully electric brand in Australia by 2026, Volvo has since backpedalled to its global pledge of ‘electrification’ by 2030. The Swedish-named, now Chinese-owned and assembled brand offers a few electric vehicles in Oz, yet only the EX30 receives discounts.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| EX30 | $56,953 | $55,990 | $963 |

A growing Chinese electric luxury brand in Australia, Zeekr has seen huge overnight success with its 7X medium SUV, which recently claimed the place of Australia’s second favourite EV behind the Tesla Model Y.
That car, perhaps predictably, won’t be discounted for the end of financial year, but its small X SUV counterpart and oddball 009 premium ‘go-fast’ people mover will be. In addition to fixed discounts, both the X and 009 offer complimentary premium interiors and free charger cables.
| Model | Price (NSW DA) | EOFY Price (DA) | Saving ($AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| X MY24/25 RWD | $48,900 | $45,400 | $3500 |
| X MY24/25 AWD | $57,990 | $54,490 | $3500 |
| 009 FWD | $125,955 | $120,9550 | $5000 |
| 009 AWD | $147,068 | $142,068 | $5000 |
