Let’s be real for a second. If you told a car enthusiast ten years ago that a seven-seat Kia would eventually be out-dragging supercars at the lights—all while carrying three kids and a week’s worth of groceries—they’d have laughed you out of the pub. But here we are in February 2026, and the Kia EV9 […]
It’s February 2026, and if you listen closely to the streets of Melbourne, Sydney, or Brisbane, you’ll notice something is missing: the rattle. That familiar, thrumming soundtrack of internal combustion is being replaced by the futuristic hum of the electric revolution. Welcome to the 2026 EV Tipping Point. We aren’t just “talking” about electric vehicles […]
It’s February 12, 2026, and if you’ve been following our “Real-World Audit” series, you know we have a bit of a bone to pick with the way “range” is discussed in Australia. For years, the conversation has been stuck on how many kilometres you can squeeze out of a single charge. But as your EV […]
It’s February 12, 2026, and if you’ve been walking through any major Australian city lately, you might have seen it—a flash of English White or Diamond Red, doors rising like a falcon’s wings, and a silent getaway that leaves petrol-powered supercars looking a bit “last decade.” The MG Cyberster has officially landed on Aussie soil, […]
If the last two years of the Australian EV transition have taught us anything, it’s that “futuristic” can sometimes be a bit of a headache. We’ve seen door handles that hide when you need them, gear shifters that require a swipe of a screen, and minimalist cabins that look great in a gallery but feel […]
It’s February 11, 2026, and if you’ve been watching the Australian EV market for more than a minute, you know that the Tesla Model Y hasn’t just been a car—it’s been a phenomenon. But for the last 18 months, the “King” has looked a little shaky. Competition from the likes of the Geely EX5 and […]
It’s February 10, 2026, and the Australian electric SUV market is no longer a one-horse race. While Tesla has enjoyed years of dominance, the challenger from Shenzhen has finally brought its “big gun” to the fight: the BYD Sealion 7. If you’ve been scrolling through the local forums or walking through the showroom in Alexandria, […]
It’s February 2026, and if you take a quick squiz at any suburban driveway from Castle Hill to Caulfield, you’ll notice the landscape has shifted. The “Tesla-only” era of the Australian EV market is officially in the rearview mirror. While the Model Y Juniper refresh has its fans, the real noise this year is coming […]
If you’ve spent any time in a pub or a BBQ pit lately, you’ve likely heard the “Depreciation Bomb” theory. It’s the one where someone’s cousin’s mate bought a $70,000 EV in 2022 and found out it was worth the price of a second-hand sandwich in 2025. As we hit February 2026, the Australian used […]
For decades, we’ve judged cars by their “mechanical soul”—the roar of the engine, the shift of the gears, and the feedback through the steering rack. But as we stand here in February 2026, the definition of a “driver’s car” is undergoing a radical, digital-first lobotomy. Enter the Afeela. Born from the unlikely marriage of Sony […]
