Audi has dramatically reset Australian pricing for the updated Q4 e-tron, including an entry model that lands below $75,000 before on-road costs.

We also have Australian Government approval for the seven-seat Kia PV5 Passenger, a serious specification discrepancy involving airbags in the KGM Musso EV, some useful real-world context around EV servicing and running costs, GAC finally resolving its BMW M8 naming problem, and Honda selling out its entire 2026 Super-ONE allocation.
