There are some exciting electric cars coming in 2024 that will become popular novated lease vehicles if there’s enough supply to meet the demand. Here’s the ones we’re getting excited about.
Peugeot E-208
The 208 is an iconic model in the Peugeot range and now it’s taking on a whole new dimension as an electric car. The new E-208 is a dynamic, modern, and highly alluring city car that we believe will capture the attention of many novated lease buyers looking for some European chic.
Kia EV5
The Kia EV5 will be available early in 2024 as a medium SUV built on the latest generation E-GMP dedicated EV platform. It looks like a smaller version of the EV9 which wowed new car buyers when released in 2023. As a medium sized SUV, the EV5 will compete against the top selling Tesla Model Y. Initial indications suggest pricing will meet market expectations and provide another SUV option for novated lease buyers.
Hyundai Kona
When Hyundai launched the previous model Kona electric it was an instant hit with fleet buyers because it looked like the petrol version. The latest version of the Kona was released in 2023 and the electric version was launched in early in 2024. With competitive pricing, roomy interior and great exterior styling, the Kona EV should be a popular novated lease car.
Subaru Solterra
Subaru opened the order books for the all new Solterra late in 2023 and local specifications and pricing were announced in January 2024. The Solterra SUV not only marks the debut of a Subaru battery electric vehicle in Australia, but also represents the beginning of increased diversification in the Subaru model line-up that will include additional Hybrid and EV models in the future.
Toyota bZ4X
The bZ4X is the first Toyota EV to be launched in Australia and is expected in dealerships during the first quarter of 2024. Pricing and specifications weren’t available at the time of publishing so it will be interesting to see where Toyota positions this car. No doubt novated lease buyers will be attracted to Toyota’s reliability and strong resale which will make this one of the hottest new releases in 2024.
Polestar 3
Probably priced above the average novated lease electric car but it shouldn’t stop the excitement building as the first deliveries of the all-new Polestar 3 get closer in 2024. It will come with a 111kWh battery pack to provide a range of 600+ and feature the latest technological developments from Polestar to make it a benchmark for driving excellence and sustainability.
Volkswagen ID.Buzz
There are several Volkswagen electric cars to be excited about in 2024. They have promised five new EVs by 2025 with three medium SUVs (ID.3, ID.4 and ID.5), the ID.Buzz people mover (our pick) and the ID.Buzz Cargo. All five vehicles look fantastic and if available in any significant volume they’ll be a hit with novated lease buyers.
