Nissan
Nissan Leaf

Several iterations have been made over the years to improve driving range and practicality.

If you are looking at purchasing a second-hand Nissan Leaf, be aware that Leaf battery packs do not have any active cooling and have been known to suffer from increased degradation and can overheat when DC fast charged back to back.
In May 2024, Nissan joined the EV price wars with big discounts on the Leaf, now starting from $39,990 driveaway.

Audi
Audi e-tron
The e-tron was Audi’s first fully electric model and the original e-tron 50 and 55 quattro variants were on sale in Australia between 2020 and 2022. The Audi e-tron is still available new via the more powerful e-tron S variants described above.

Blade
Blade Electron
The Blade Electron has been consigned to the history books but appears here because it was actually the first commercially available fully electric vehicle in Australia, going on sale way back in 2008. Ross Blade is the pioneer behind this vehicle, and he built 50 Blades by swapping out the petrol engine and fuel tank of a Hyundai Getz with a 40 kW electric motor and 16 kWh battery pack. The result was a fully electric car that could travel up to 100 km and had a top speed of 120 km/h. Given only 50 were made, it would be very rare to see one on the road and even rarer to see one for sale.

Blade Electron | $48,000 | 100 km | 16 kWh |
BMW
BMW i3
The quirky BMW i3 and sports variant i3s were on sale in Australia between 2014 and 2021. The BMW i3 city car had some unique features such as its carbon-fibre construction and a range-extender (REx) version, which utilises a small 650 cc BMW motorbike engine as a generator to charge the battery while you’re driving for an additional 100 km range. Older BMW i3 models were available with 22 kWh or 33 kWh battery packs depending on when they were manufactured.

Hyundai
Hyundai Ioniq Electric
The original Hyundai Ioniq was available in fully electric as well as mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions. When launched it was the first all-electric vehicle in Australia under $50,000 and came with a 28 kWh usable battery offering up to 230 km WLTP driving range. 2020 models were upgraded with a 38 kWh battery which increased WLTP driving range to 274 km. The Hyundai Ioniq remains one of the most efficient electric vehicles due to its 1475 kg kerb weight being relatively light among EVs.

Mazda
Mazda MX-30
Mazda offered the MX-30 in a single fully electric E35 Astina variant with only 200 km driving range from it’s small battery pack. The fully electric version cost nearly twice as much as the mild-hybrid MX-30 G20e so it wasn’t a big hit with customers. Mazda stopped selling the MX-30 electric in Australia after Q1 of 2024 to make way for a future range of electrified models.

Mitsubishi
Mitsubishi i-MiEV
The tiny Mitsubishi i-MiEV was first released in Australia in 2010 and was discontinued in 2014 after proving unpopular here. Only around 250 vehicles were sold during this time, but it is now one of the cheapest fully electric cars available second hand. The i-MiEV features a rear-wheel drive power train coupled with a 16 kWh battery for up to 150 km NEDC or 100 – 120 km real world driving range when new. Second hand examples will have less range, although some EV repairers are able to fit replacement battery packs with 30 kWh capacity and 200 – 240 km driving range.

Nissan
Nissan Leaf
The Nissan Leaf is still available new with much better driving range and more stylish looks compared to the original version which launched in Australia back in 2012. The first generation ZE0 Nissan Leaf deserves a special mention in this section as they are readily available on the second hand market with some listed between $10,000 – $15,000. 2012 Leaf models first launched here with 24 kWh batteries, which grew to 30 kWh by 2017 when the first generation ended. Early Nissan Leaf batteries suffered from higher levels of degradation, so the driving range of older vehicles could be significantly less than when they were new.
Nissan Australia stopped selling the Leaf through dealerships after the 2011-2012 model didn’t sell well, so later model years are either private imports or offered through specialist bulk-buy schemes such as The Good Car Company. If considering a Leaf built between 2013 and 2017, make sure to investigate the battery health as well as warranty and repair situation before purchasing.

Renault
Renault Kangoo ZE
Renault’s Kangoo ZE small van was aimed at the local business and delivery sector, with 4 cubic metres of loading space in the back, 650 kg payload and a 200 km WLTP driving range. It was superseded by the all-new Kangoo E-Tech with up to 300 km driving range.

Renault Zoe
Renault sold the Zoe electric hatch in Australia between 2017 and 2020, before pulling it from the market citing lower than expected demand. At the time the Zoe was one of the cheapest fully electric vehicles on sale here with a starting price below $50,000. If you’re looking at purchasing a second hand Renault Zoe, be aware that the variants sold here only support AC charging up to 22 kW with a three-phase charger. DC fast charging is not supported so this car would be most suited for shorter trips below the driving range.

Tesla
Tesla Model S
Tesla delivered the first flagship Model S sedans in Australia at the end of 2014 and their last six years later in 2020. Since then, Tesla decided to stop making the Model S in right-hand drive so Australia missed out on updated versions with upgraded interiors and the flagship Plaid variant. Between 2014 and 2020 there were many different variants on sale including single motor rear-wheel drive and dual-motor all-wheel drive.
Earlier model years included the drivetrain and battery size in their name, for example P90D is a Performance dual-motor model with 90 kWh battery pack. The most recent versions were simply named Long Range or Performance, similar to how Tesla names the Model 3 and Model Y. Model S Performance variants features Ludicrous mode which can accelerate the vehicle from 0-100 km/h in 2.5 seconds.

Tesla Model X
The Tesla Model X large SUV launched in Australia during 2016 and the last examples were delivered at the end of 2020. Just like the Model S, right-hand drive Model X production ceased so the updated Model X Plaid is not available in Australia. Similar to the Model S, several different variants of the Model X were on sale and the naming scheme is the same with recent model years either being Long Range or Performance.
Model X is available with different interior seating options including 5-seat, 6-seat or 7-seat configurations. The Model X Performance also features Ludicrous mode with 0-100 km/h acceleration in 2.8 seconds, slightly slower than the Model S Performance.

Tesla Roadster
The original or first generation Tesla Roadster was briefly on sale in Australia between 2011 and 2012, with estimates of fewer than 30 sold here in total. The Roadster is based on the Lotus Elise chassis and was a huge leap in performance for electric vehicles at the time, offering 0-100 km/h acceleration just under 4 seconds, a top speed of 212 km/h and range of over 300 km.
Tesla Roadsters sold in Australia were version 2.5, meaning they are more reliable than earlier Roadsters and include upgrades such as new seats and improved power electronics. Two variants were available in Australia, a base Roadster and a slightly quicker Roadster Sport featuring a more powerful electric motor and adjustable dampers.
