Best EOFY 2025 electric vehicle (EV) car sales in Australia
End of financial year sales for new cars aren't just great for people shopping for a deal - they're also an important opportunity for manufacturers to move metal off their books. Battery-powered models are selling slowly in 2025, which means there are bargains to be had in showrooms.
ELECTRIC VEHICLES
Polestar: Customers who choose the Polestar 3 benefit from around $20,000 in free extras including powertrain and plus packs. Long-range dual-motor versions that usually cost about $143,000 drive-away are now about $115,000 drive-away.
Hyundai Ioniq 6: A new Hyundai Ioniq 6 sedan is around the corner, so the brand is offering an impressive $20,000 deposit contribution as long as you finance through Hyundai, borrowing significantly less than you would ordinarily need. Customers can also choose between a free $1500 charging voucher or wall charger.
Jeep Avenger: Usually available for $49,990 plus on-road costs, the electric Jeep Avenger offers strong value at $40,000 drive-away – a discount of about $15,000.
Deepal S07: Save around $8500 on the Deepal S07 electric SUV, now available from $49,990 drive-away.
Fiat 500e: Available from $49,990 drive-away, the Fiat 500e is around $5000 cheaper than its launch price.
GWM Ora: The GWM ORA is one of Australia's cheapest EVs. Currently available from $33,990 drive-away, the retro-chic hatch represents a $6000 discount.
Omoda E5: China's Omoda E5 is on sale for $40,527 drive-away, a $6000 discount on this medium-sized SUV.
Ford Mustang Mach-E: The Blue Oval badly misjudged prices when it launched the electric Mach-E in 2023. Originally available from $79,990 plus thousands more in on-road costs, the car soon dropped to $64,990 plus on-roads. Today you can gtr hold of it for $63,990 drive-away, which is about $20,000 less than its original offer.
Geely EX5: Having only just launched in Australia, Geely isn't ready to slash prices for its electric SUV. But customers do get tasty extras such as a $2000 gift card, $2000 trade-in bonus and a free charging cable that together represent about $5000 in savings.
Cupra Born: Originally launched for $59,990 plus on-roads, the Cupra Born can be had for $49,990 drive-away, a discount of about $15,000.
MG: Great prices for electric MG models include the MG4 priced from $36,990 drive-away (about $5000 off) and the MG ZS EV for $35,888.
Tesla: Trade-in bonuses of $3000 for the Model 3 join free 'autopilot' upgrades that make the electric sedan easy to live with in traffic.
BYD: BYD is also reluctant to cut prices, so its EOFY offer surrounds sharp finance – as little as 2.99 per cent on the Sealion 6.
Leapmotor: Cheap loans for the new Leapmotor C10 – just 1.9 per cent per annum – meet a free wall charger for electric versions. Its hybrid cousin is punchy, too, priced from just $45,900 drive-away.

Volvo: The $7500 premium separating two-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions of the C40 Recharge has been slashed to just $1000 – you can get one for $88,990 drive-away.

Farmers hit by drought and floods call on Australians to shop local and lend a hand
Australians are being urged to shop local and lend a hand to support farmers hit hard this past year by severe drought and floods. Many have been left wondering how they can help farmers after seeing the devastating impact of drought in South Australia and Victoria and flooding in Queensland and New South Wales. Shopping local is one way, but there are also opportunities for everyday Australians to roll up their sleeves to work on farms, or even offer farmers a holiday. Australian Made chief executive Ben Lazzaro said buying local generated direct income and jobs, particularly in regional areas. "We should be looking for Aussie products and produce 365 days a year," Mr Lazzaro said. While parts of SA and Victoria have recently received some rain, it is not enough to break the prolonged drought and farms could take years to recover. Buy Local Buy SA marketing manager Penny Reidy encouraged shoppers to buy SA-grown citrus, which had been impacted by an extraordinarily hot, dry summer. While fruit size was down, quality and yields were still high. "If you buy from a local fruit and vegetable store, and buy in-season, then you're supporting the local economy through the whole supply chain as well." Along with taking a hit from drought and floods, South Australian Dairyfarmers Association's Rob Brokenshire said the dairy industry was also competing with cheaper imports. "This is a time when we need to push back on imports and we need to become parochial as South Australian and Australian, and buying locally absolutely makes a difference," Mr Brokenshire said. The Australian wine industry has been battling on many fronts — from drought to reduced consumer demand and low grape prices. Paxton Wines head winemaker Ashleigh Seymour said small and medium-sized producers were doing it especially tough. "Next time you're in the bottle shop trying to choose some wine for dinner, or take to a friend's house, try and buy Australian … especially as we go through these tough times," she said. "Whether it's grape or lamb or grain production, it's not just that specific industry that is affected. For those with some spare time or money, there are also charities collecting donations and volunteers to help farmers directly. BlazeAid relaunched its Give a Farmer a Break program, which "matchmakes" farmers and volunteers with help such as fence building, livestock agistment, and holidays. BlazeAid founder Kevin Butler said city dwellers were reaching out wanting to help. "The idea is [volunteers] can come to your farm, you teach them how to feed the sheep or the dogs, water the garden, or whatever, and give you a break. Or give you a chance to do something else. Or even go on a holiday." Regional charity Rural Aid provides services such as free mental health programs, counselling, and water tank and hay deliveries to farmers directly. Chief executive John Warlters said it had experienced a huge increase in demand and relied on public generosity to keep up — either as a monetary donation or volunteering. "It's donations from mums and dads, community groups and sporting clubs, but it's also from businesses big and small," Mr Warlters said. "The more the situation is shared with the broader public, and the more people understand how tough it is at the moment, they definitely want to be part of the solution."

Mr Potato Management wind-up application over tax
Don't miss out on the headlines from Business. Followed categories will be added to My News. The ATO is seeking to wind up a key company in a national fast food group, but it hasn't stopped its glamorous founders from embarking on a tour of Australia. Mr Potato was launched by model Jess Davis, 34, and husband Tyson Hoffman, 30, aka Tyson Finau, who played for the Adelaide 36ers NBL team. Court documents reveal the Deputy Commissioner of Taxation launched Federal Court wind-up action against Mr Potato Management on May 9 and a liquidator consented to take on the company if it was successful. A hearing on the matter has been adjourned to July 4. Earlier this year, former franchisees of the chain revealed they'd had to sell their homes and consider legal action after their stores failed to turn a profit. One claimed to have lost $130,000 in seven months. Meanwhile, Ms Davis and Mr Finau are touring the country in the Mr Potato food truck, having travelled throughout NSW, the Northern Territory and Queensland in the past three months.

Photo: Contributed The tour is scheduled to finish in Kalgoorlie, WA, in August and is seeking to make a Guinness World Record for the longest distance and most number of stops travelled by a food truck on a single road trip. Disgruntled former franchisees fear the trip is part of a bid to recruit new franchisees to the brand. News Corp has contacted Ms Davis for comment on the tax case. The Mr Potato chain has lost more than half its network in the past two years, with its last Queensland stores, at Mermaid Waters and Broadbeach, closing in February. The chain's Melbourne store, which launched at Highpoint Shopping Centre last year, is no longer operating, while stores at Hyde Park SA and Joondalup WA have also been shuttered. The Mr Potato suggests the group is looking for franchisees to open stores in eight new locations across the country. As the number of franchises boiled down from 13 to six, its high-profile founders were seeking investment in their next project – a luxury eco resort on a remote island in Tonga. Ms Davis, who made a quest to be Miss Universe last year, said Mr Potato adhered to the Australian Franchise Code.

Boom to bust: home prices plunge in key Sydney suburbs
They're the suburbs Sydney's fledgling housing boom forgot. Property prices in some of the city's most coveted suburbs have plummeted over the past year despite falling interest rates igniting another surge in real estate values across the rest of the market. Median price falls of up to $750,000 in coastal and well-connected inner suburbs have largely been the result of buyers turning to more affordable markets amid cost of living pressures. This reduction in demand – at a time of rising listings – has put pressure on sellers in up-market areas, while buyers in these markets had more room to negotiate. PropTrack data indicated the largest falls over the past year were in eastern suburbs Vaucluse, Waverley, Woolloomooloo and Darlinghurst and in northern beaches suburbs Manly and Fairlight. Prices in these markets all fell by an average of more than 14 per cent over the past year, which given the inflated prices, delivered buyers significant savings. Manly house prices were an average of close to $750,000 lower than a year ago, while in neighbouring Fairlight the difference was about $600,000. Other suburbs with major falls, reported at between 10 and 14 per cent, were Cammeray, Cremorne, Gordon, Kirribilli, Neutral Bay and Lindfield, on the north shore. There were also large price falls for units in southern suburbs Blakehurst, Woolooware and Kingsgrove and for houses in Glebe and Strathfield South, in the inner west. REA Group economist Eleanor Creagh said a complex set of forces pushed down median prices in many up-market areas, but one of the biggest factors was looming uncertainty about the global economy. 'Buyers in some premium markets may have been more cautious,' she said. 'These buyers are typically less sensitive to mortgage rates and more responsive to broader macro-economic factors. 'With recent uncertainty around the economic outlook and volatility in equity markets, some high-end buyers may be exercising caution (and) delaying upgrade decisions.' Ms Creagh said this contrasted with a recent rise in spending across the cheaper end of the market. 'More affordable markets … have seen renewed activity since the Reserve Bank's February and May rate cuts, with improved borrowing capacity lifting prices.' Ms Creagh noted that some annual price figures may be somewhat skewered by weakness in the market late last year, just prior to rate cuts, and shifts in the types of homes getting sold. Auctioneer Damien Cooley – the director of Cooley, one of Sydney's biggest auction houses – said the type of housing stock coming to market was playing a part in prices. 'A-grade' homes that ticked all the boxes for buyers were still selling well even in up-market areas. But there was also a high share of listings for 'C-grade' and 'D-grade' homes – properties with major drawbacks – and these were struggling. 'Sellers of C-grade homes are getting crucified,' he said. 'Buyers are not interested in a lot of these properties unless they can get them for bargain basement prices.'
