  • EVs outsell petrol again as Hyundai scraps Ioniq 3 Australian launch

    EVs outsell petrol again as Hyundai scraps Ioniq 3 Australian launch
    Oct 7 2026
    Electric vehicles have outsold petrol-only cars in Australia for the second month running, accounting for almost one in four new vehicle sales in September. We unpack the figures, the leading models and what growing competition means for buyers. Hyundai has scrapped the Ioniq 3’s Australian launch, saying the numbers no longer stack up in an increasingly competitive small-EV market. What does that tell us about the pressure on established brands? We also discuss the Honda Super-One: a tiny electric hatch with around 200km of range, a simulated gearbox and a $36,900 driveaway price. Can personality justify the premium? Plus, Mitsubishi returns with its first new EV in 15 years - and says the flagship ASX VR-e will be its fastest-accelerating model ever sold in Australia. All this and much more on this episode of The Driven Podcast.

  • Australia’s cheapest new car is electric, as Four Corners takes aim at Chinese EVs

    Australia’s cheapest new car is electric, as Four Corners takes aim at Chinese EVs
    Sep 23 2026
    Australia’s cheapest new car is now electric, with BYD slashing the price of its Atto 1 to just $19,990 driveaway. What does this mean for EV affordability and the wider Australian car market? We wrap up a big weekend at Everything Electric Sydney, sharing our highlights from the show, before looking at an Australian-first grid connection from Ampol and Ausgrid that could dramatically reduce the cost of rolling out EV fast chargers. And finally, we discuss the ABC’s Four Corners investigation into the cybersecurity and national-security risks associated with Chinese EVs. The program raised some important questions, but was its focus too narrow? We explore why cybersecurity and data privacy are issues for all modern connected cars, regardless of where they’re made or what powers them.

    V2G: Is Australia finally ready? | Live from Everything Electric Sydney
    Sep 21 2026
    Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology promises to turn electric cars into batteries on wheels, helping households slash electricity bills, power their homes and even earn money by selling energy back to the grid. But how close are we to making this a reality for everyday Australian EV owners? Recorded live at Everything Electric Sydney, The Driven Podcast brings together experts from Hyundai, Origin Energy, Amber Electric and Net Zero Engineering Solutions to explore the opportunities and challenges of bidirectional charging. We discuss the difference between V2H and V2G, what's holding back widespread adoption, the challenges of interoperability and grid standards, and what car manufacturers need to do to support the technology without compromising battery warranties. Panelists: - Portia Rooney, Founder and Director, Net Zero Engineering Solutions - Scott Nargar, Senior Manager of Future Mobility and Government Relations, Hyundai Motor Company Australia - Daryl Wong, Head of Charging Product and Performance, Origin Energy - Tim Barson, Strategic Partnerships Manager, Amber Electric
