2024 BYD Dolphin Dynamic review: Australia’s cheapest electric car provides an EV alternative to the Toyota Corolla, Mazda3, Hyundai i30 and Kia Cerato

EV Central

Priced from about $40,000, it is a small hatchback about the size of a Toyota Corolla or Hyundai i30. Its natural EV rivals are the GWM Ora and MG4 , but the Dolphin also competes with many petrol-powered hatchbacks.

Genesis GV70 Electrified review

EV Central

Genesis – a brand described by its spokespeople as “audacious and distinctively Korean” – is to Hyundai what Lexus is to Toyota, which means that it’s after Lexus customers, but also the German premium marques such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi.

2024 Mustang Mach-E GT Review

Baua Electric

Even better, Ford Australia recently slashed the price of the Mustang Mach-E range by up to $7000 making it a worthwhile consideration against all-electric rivals like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 (from $69,900 plus on-road costs), the Kia EV6 (from $72,590 +ORC) and the Tesla Model Y (from $69,300 +ORC).
