Resale Value: Will My EV Be Worth Nothing in 5 Years?

There is a whispered fear at every Australian BBQ when the topic of electric vehicles comes up. It usually sounds something like this: “Sure, they’re great to drive. But what happens in five years when the battery dies and the car is worth zero?” It is the “Smartphone on Wheels” theory—the idea that like an […]

The Financial “Superpower”: Novated Leasing for Beginners

There is a strange phenomenon happening in car dealerships across Australia right now. People are walking past $40,000 petrol hatchbacks and driving away in $60,000 electric SUVs—and their weekly budget hasn’t changed by a single cent. It sounds like magic, or perhaps a scam.

Brand Wars: Should You Trust the Newcomers? (BYD, MG, Zeekr, Deepal)

Two years ago, if you told your mates at the pub you were buying a “Deepal” or a “Zeekr,” they would have asked if you were ordering a new craft beer.
