EOFY is coming. So are the car deals.

This is one of the best times of year to find a sharp price on a new vehicle—if you’re prepared. From runout sales to bonus inclusions and tax-time savings, there are real opportunities on offer. But knowing when and how to act can make all the difference.

Here’s how to get ready—straight from the team at Remunerator, your novated leasing specialists.

Wondering what car to lease this year? Start with what everyone else is driving.

These are the top 10 most leased cars by Remunerator customers in the 2024/25 FBT year—and they reflect the key trends in what Australians are looking for: value, practicality, and smart tax savings through novated leasing.

New EVs. Lower prices. More choice.

As of April 1^st this year, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are no longer eligible for the government’s Electric Car Discount. A key change that marks a new chapter in Australia’s push toward zero-emission transport.

While this shift may catch some drivers by surprise, it also puts the spotlight on fully electric vehicles (EVs), which remain FBT-exempt – and more cost-effective than ever through novated leasing.

Staying ahead of these changes is important.

That’s what the Remunerator EV Hub is for.

Plug-in hybrids had their moment. But as of 1 April 2025, they no longer qualify for the Electric Car Discount in Australia.

If you’re looking to lease a car that delivers on tax savings, lower running costs, and zero fuel stops—PHEVs are out. Fully electric vehicles are the way forward.

The good news? You can still get all the benefits by choosing a full EV that fits your lifestyle just as well.

Here's how.

Think novated leasing only works for new EVs?

Think again.

If you've been holding off on novated leasing because you're not in the market for a brand-new car, you’re not alone. Many drivers assume the benefits of salary packaging only apply to new electric vehicles.

The truth is, there are more flexible and cost-effective options than ever before. From used cars to demo models—and even the car already sitting in your driveway—novated leasing can still deliver significant tax savings.

Here’s how you can unlock tax savings without buying new.

Not every car solution fits every driver.

You want flexibility. Simplicity. And something that suits your lifestyle.

That’s where novated leasing comes in – a personalised way to drive the car you want, on terms that work for you.

The start of the new Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) year on April 1 is the perfect time to maximise your savings with novated leasing. By leasing your car early in the FBT year, you can optimize every dollar, simplify budgeting, and take full advantage of tax benefits. Planning ahead ensures a smoother experience, giving you peace of mind when it comes to managing your vehicle expenses.

Finding the right car at the right price can be time-consuming and overwhelming. Remunerator Motorsearch simplifies the process by leveraging our extensive dealer network to secure the best possible deals—without the hassle of negotiating or searching on your own.

So, what’s new, and is it worth the upgrade? Here’s everything you need to know.

The Australian used car market is shifting rapidly. After years of soaring prices due to supply shortages and high demand, we’re now seeing a steady decline in prices as stock levels stabilize.
