Electric Vehicle Sales in Australia & New Zealand Subdued - CleanTechnica
Electric vehicle (EV) sales in Australia during July 2025 showed a notable slowdown after a strong June, with Tesla deliveries dropping from nearly 5,000 in June to just over 900 Model Ys and Model 3s combined. Despite BYD’s impressive 160% year-on-year growth, it was insufficient to offset the overall decline.
