More people are choosing EV than ever before. Driving ranges are longer. You can choose from over 90 models, and there are more public EV chargers than ever before. Best of all, thanks to the Federal Government’s Electric Car (EV) Discount and the huge potential tax savings of a novated lease, it’s never been a better time to go EV.
Feeling supercharged? Let’s go shopping.
Stop dreaming EV. Start saving with EV
A government discount just for driving an EV! Yes please!
It’s remarkable that many drivers aren’t aware of the Federal Government’s Electric Car (EV) Discount, yet it can save you big dollars. Essentially, eligible EVs and plug-in hybrids under $91k don’t pay FBT (pre tax payments only, instead of a mix of pre and post). Without having to pay FBT, the weekly cost of an EV is reduced, to the point where it could be at cost parity with a petrol car, when acquired through a novated lease. In short, many EV drivers end up paying the same for their EV even though it has a higher ticket price than a petrol car.
The electric car’s driveaway price is over $20,000 more, yet you pay the same per week as the petrol car with a novated lease.
*Both based on $90,000 salary, 15,000kms and 5 year lease term.

*All eligible vehicles must be ordered before 01/10/24 (unless extended), or while stocks last. Displayed price is only available through a novated lease administered by RemServ. Weekly costs have been determined based on the following assumptions: 1) The lease is a RemServ fully maintained lease, 2) a 5 year term, 3) a residual value of 28.13% of the vehicle purchase price payable at the end of term, 4) Inclusion of finance and budgeted costs for: fuel or electricity, 4 replacement tyres, maintenance, roadside assistance, registration, CTP and comprehensive insurance, 5) Gross annual salary of$90,000, 6) Vehicle purchased in QLD, 7) 15,000km per annum, 8) Salary Sacrifice using Employee Contribution Method (ECM). The Fringe Benefits Tax Exempt Method is only used for eligible electric vehicles under the luxury car tax threshold of $91,387. The indicative price quoted for the novated lease is based on vehicle quotations RemServ has received within the last 45 days and does not include any optional extras. Any optional extras that you choose will affect the cost of the novated lease and residual value. If you purchase the vehicle on termination of the novated lease, GST will apply on the purchase price you pay at that time. The novated lease offer is based on the assumption outlined above, and is an indicative cost approximation of the selected vehicle and model shown and the amounts may change at the time the novated lease quotation is completed and finalised. Your individual circumstances have not been taken into account as this will affect the overall weekly cost amount and the benefits of a novated lease. These specials cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer. From 1 April 2025, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle will not be considered a zero or low emissions vehicle under the FBT legislation. However, you can continue to apply the exemption if both the following requirements are met: 1) Use of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle was exempt before 1 April 2025. 2) You have a financially binding commitment to continue providing private use of the vehicle on and after 1 April 2025. For this purpose, any optional extension of the agreement is not considered binding.
^Savings shown are indicative and reflect estimated tax savings over the full-term of the lease. The total amount saved is a comparison between a novated lease based on the assumption outlined above and the purchase of a vehicle and payment of running and maintenance costs using post-tax earnings. Actual savings will depend on your personal circumstance.
+RemServ’s car procurement services are optional, you may choose to purchase your vehicle through any supplier.
