Are you waiting for “better tech” or “lower prices” before switching to an EV? That delay might be the most expensive financial decision you make this year.
The Mid-2027 FBT Review is no longer a distant headline—it’s a countdown. With treasury submissions closing and the 0% FBT exemption under the microscope, the “Golden Era” of tax-free EV leasing is entering its final 12 months.
The Reality Check: ✅ The Lock-In: Sign a lease in 2026, and you secure your 0% FBT status for the full term (up to 5 years). ❌ The Risk: Wait until late 2027, and you could be hit with full FBT, effectively adding $200–$400/month back onto your car costs.
Whether it’s a Geely EX5 ($40,990) or a BYD Sealion 7 ($54,990), the strategy remains the same: Secure the asset before the policy shifts.
