2025 Peugeot Expert released with unchanged pricing, but no more manual
For the 2025 model year range, the other French brand's rival for the Ford Transit Custom and Renault Trafic kicks off with the Expert Pro Short Wheelbase with an eight-speed automatic transmission, with the manual gearbox previously offered in the City and Pro grades now dropped from the lineup.
All variants have been given exterior styling updates including new headlights, new front and rear bumpers and the latest Peugeot logo and lettering, with an additional paint colour – Titanium Grey – also added to the options list.

While the load areas are the same size as before, the changes increase the Expert's overall length by 24mm, to 4981mm for Short Wheelbase versions and 5331mm for the Long Wheelbase body style.
The interior receives a redesigned dashboard with additional storage compartments, and both a new 10-inch digital instrument cluster and 10-inch central infotainment touchscreen as standard across the range.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now standard, while the driver's seat offers additional manual adjustment.
Payloads have also increased, with the Short Wheelbase now offering a claimed class-leading 1350kg – up from 1280kg – and Long Wheelbase versions improving from 1237kg to 1325kg. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
There are no changes to the 110kW/370Nm 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel that powers all versions of the Expert.
Pricing remains unchanged, but the removal of the entry-level City Short Wheelbase manual – previously priced at $43,397 before on-road costs – means the cheapest 2025 Expert variant is now the Pro Short Wheelbase, priced at $48,990 plus on-roads.
The 2025 Expert Premium Short Wheelbase remains the same at $51,990 before on-road costs, with long-wheelbase versions of both Pro and Premium adding $2500 to the list price.
As mentioned, the Expert Pro Long Wheelbase manual has also been dropped, and the 2025 Peugeot Expert lineup is in Australian showrooms now.

Motor rally accident kills three spectators in France
Three spectators died in central France on Saturday after a car driven by a 22-year-old woman racer veered off the road during an auto rally, authorities said. The driver of the modified Peugeot 208 that hit the spectators and her 51-year-old woman co-driver were taken to hospital but without life-threatening injuries, prosecutors said. Two men died at the scene and prosecutors later announced that a third man, airlifted to hospital, succumbed to his injuries. The three killed were two brothers, aged 70 and 60, and a 44-year-old man, according to the public prosecutor's office, which opened an investigation. Several people who witnessed the accident near the town of Ambert in central France were in shock, a local official told AFP. In total, a dozen people were taken to a psychological support unit set up in the nearby village of Saint-Just. The accident occurred around 11 am (0900 GMT) on Saturday. "This is a tragedy for the world of racing," said Joel Mathurin, the local prefect, or top government official for the area. Regional prosecutor Laure Moisset said the accident was "very violent". In a short statement, the rally organisers said that the race was halted at 10:49 am. All spectators were asked to leave the scene and the event's award ceremony was cancelled. Dozens of firefighters and police were dispatched to the scene. The investigation was "in its early stages," the prosecutor said. The Peugeot 208 car was to be examined. The road where the accident took place, almost a straight line according to authorities, has been closed. Prosecutors said they would have to determine whether the spectators were in an authorised area during the rally. "I prefer to remain cautious," Moisset told reporters. "It is still a little too early to be precise," she added. Organised since 1965, the motor rally attracted 167 teams for its 32nd edition. In the rally held last year, a race marshal died.

Electric Fiat, Abarth 500e prices slashed by upwards of $20,000
Fiat has slashed thousands off the prices of its electric city car lineup amid slow sales. The Fiat 500e is now being offered for $38,990 drive-away nationwide, compared to $52,500 before on-road costs before. Taking into account on-road costs, the 500e is almost $20,000 cheaper in Victoria. The Abarth 500e Scorpionissima has been slashed to $43,990 drive-away, down from $60,500 before on-road costs – a saving of over $20,000 compared to the usual drive-away price. The $38,990 drive-away offer is for both new and demonstrator examples of the Fiat 500e La Prima in Ice White delivered until September 30, 2025. The 500e La Prima comes with a single electric motor making 87kW/220Nm, driving the front wheels. Electric driving range from the 42kWh lithium-ion battery pack is officially 311km on the WLTP cycle, with 85kW charging capability meaning an 80 per cent top-up in around 35 minutes. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. As well as its iconic shape, the 500e La Prima also comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, a 10.25-inch centre touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, and 'eco-leather' seat upholstery. The hotter Scorpionissima version from Abarth – Fiat's high-performance tuning division – can be had in Acid Green or Poison Blue for its $43,990 drive-away price until September 10, 2025. The Scorpionissima sits above the Turismo in the two-variant Abarth 500e lineup. Fiat announced only 219 Scorpionissima would be coming to Australia when the punchier 500e was launched in 2024. There's more grunt – and a painstakingly tuned synthesized 'engine' note to match – with outputs of 113kW/235Nm, and a 0-100km/h sprint in 7.0 seconds but with the same 42kWh battery reducing driving range to 253km. For the sacrifice, the Abarth brings 18-inch alloys, unique digital instrument graphics and Alcantara trim among its upgrades. In the first half of 2025, 500e sales totaled 72 across both Fiat and Abarth versions, compared to 135 examples of the petrol-powered Fiat/Abarth 500 lineup. This means Fiat/Abarth 500e sales are down 45.9 per cent compared to the first half of 2024. While small numbers, the 500e made up 34.8 per cent of total 500/500e sales, making the seventh-highest penetration of electric for models also offered with internal combustion engines. Production of the 500e was halted in 2024 amid slow global sales, with a hybrid version now in the works with production planned to start at the end of 2025.

2025 Omoda 9 price and specs
Chery says its spinoff brand Omoda Jaecoo is a step up from its namesake brand, and at the top of the hierarchy is the Omoda 9. Priced at $61,990 before on-road costs, this medium-to-large five-seat crossover SUV is the priciest model ever offered by Chery in Australia. It's arriving in local showrooms in early August, offered exclusively with a tri-motor plug-in hybrid powertrain offering some heady stats: 169km of electric-only range, combined range of up to 1100km, total system power of 395kW, and a claimed 0-100km/h acceleration time of just 4.9 seconds. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. It's slightly larger than a Mazda CX-60 – 35mm longer, 30mm wider and 4mm taller – and is offered in one fully loaded grade for less than the most affordable plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of its Japanese rival. The Mazda CX-60 P50e Pure, for context, is priced at $63,290 before on-roads. The Omoda 9 joins the Jaecoo J7 and J8 in Omoda Jaecoo showrooms. Omoda-badged vehicles will have sleeker, crossover-style styling, while Jaecoo-badged models have more traditional SUV styling. Here's an explainer. The Omoda 9 rides on MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension with Continuous Damping Control. There are selectable Eco, Normal, Sport, Snow, Sand and Off-road drive modes, and three levels of regenerative braking. The Omoda 9 is backed by an eight-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty for both the vehicle and its high-voltage battery. Omoda Jaecoo also offers eight years of roadside assistance and eight years or 120,000km of capped-price servicing. Servicing is required every 12 months or 15,000km, whichever comes first. The Omoda 9 has yet to be tested by safety authority ANCAP. However, in testing by sister authority Euro NCAP, it received a five-star rating. Standard safety equipment includes: There's just one trim level available, called the Virtue. Standard equipment includes: The Omoda 9 is offered here exclusively with a black interior. Silk White is the standard exterior paint finish. The following finishes are optional: MORE: Explore the Omoda 9 showroom Content originally sourced from: Chery says its spinoff brand Omoda Jaecoo is a step up from its namesake brand, and at the top of the hierarchy is the Omoda 9.
