Common questions

What electric utes are available in Australia?

On sale now: the KGM Musso EV, Deepal E07, Toyota HiLux EV, MG U9 EV, LDV eT60 and Ford F-150 Lightning.

What is the cheapest electric ute in Australia?

The KGM Musso EV 2WD at $60,000 drive-away (November 2026).

Can electric utes tow 3,500 kg?

Some can: check each ute's braked towing rating above. Range roughly halves when towing a heavy load, so plan charging stops closely.

Electric or plug-in hybrid ute?

An electric ute is cheapest to run around town and on short jobs. A plug-in hybrid ute suits long distances and heavy towing, with petrol as backup.

How we work it out, and our sources

Weekly cost = the car's energy use × 250 km × your electricity or fuel price, with 90% of charging at home. Prices are list prices at November 2026; check with the dealer.

  • Electricity: 2026–27 default rates (AER, Victorian Default Offer, state retailers). Public charging: Sydney network prices, July 2026.
  • Petrol and diesel: capital-city daily averages from state government price feeds, via FuelRadar, 12 November 2026. Diesel for Hobart, Canberra and Darwin is estimated from the national fall.
  • Cars: maker figures via CarExpert, Drive, CarsGuide and EV Central. Plug-in electric range is taken as 80% of the claim.
  • Servicing: published capped prices; marked as an estimate where not yet published (CarExpert comparison).
  • Tyres: an EV set lasts about 35,000 km, a petrol or hybrid set 50,000 km (RACV); prices from Gridly.
  • Home charger: about $2,000 installed ($1,000–$3,000). Novated leases: PwC summary.
