Australia can’t brag about having the world’s most developed or diverse electric vehicle market, but that may be about to change in 2023 with a range of new battery-electric cars expected for release down under.

If 2022 showed the huge demand among Australian drivers for brands like the Kia EV6 and Hyundai Ioniq 5, dealers next year are expected to start taking orders on 21 new models.

From high-end luxury sedans, to modest hatchbacks, off-road vehicles and transit vans, here’s a sample of 10 electric vehicles expected to be hitting the Australian market in 2023.

Fiat 500e

The Fiat 500 was introduced in 1957, produced until 1975 and then revived in 2007. Now the popular hatchback is going electric. With a relatively limited range and a price yet to be determined, this small EV is aimed at inner-city drivers.

Subaru Solterra

The Solterra is Subaru’s first run at a mass-market electric car that is similar in principle to Toyota’s bZ4X. Details on the mid-sized SUV have yet to be released but in Japan the car promises a driving range of 530km in an all-wheel drive. It is schedule to hit the market in mid 2023.
