MARCH 2025 ELECTRIC VEHICLE SALES DATA AUSTRALIA

EV Channels Review

This episode of The EV Show dives deep into Australia's March 2025 electric vehicle sales data, revealing a healthy 7.5% market share for EVs, the highest of the year so far. Despite Tesla's Model Y deliveries being paused for the upcoming refresh, BYD's Atto 3 and Kia's EV5 and EV3 made strong showings in the top 10. The Deepal E07, a unique ute-SUV hybrid, was a major talking point, with its $64,900 starting price and versatile design, though brand awareness remains a challenge. The discussion also addressed the controversial Channel 7 'Spotlight' program on nickel mining, with hosts emphasizing that many Australian EVs use LFP batteries and are not linked to the alleged unethical practices. The upcoming Zeekr 007 GT shooting brake was also highlighted as a potentially exciting, albeit niche, addition to the market.
