2024 is drawing to a close and while there are still a handful of electric vehicle (EV) launches to come before December 31, there’s a much larger slate planned for the new year.
That includes not only new and updated versions of existing nameplates, but also the arrival of new auto brands to the Australian market.
While new car launches can be subject to delays, this is our latest intel on what we expect to arrive this year and next. Each model is linked to our latest relevant content.
We also have a new car calendar that includes launch timing for combustion-powered, hybrid and plug-in hybrid models.
