Every electrified ute available in Australia in 2026

Fuel prices have been a hot topic in recent months, and while things may have settled slightly, it isn't unreasonable to expect price spikes in future.

The hardest-hit fuel type was diesel, which is a mainstay for commercial vehicles including several of Australia's top-selling models. But if you want or need the practicality of a dual-cab, there are now several options to lower your fuel consumption.

These are the cheapest electrified utes currently on sale in Australia, excluding upcoming models like JAC Hunter PHEV, which will be priced from "under $50,000" before it arrives mid-year, and the all-electric LDV eTerron 9, which was previously confirmed for Australia but is yet to be released.

We've also excluded mild-hybrids such as some Toyota HiLux variants, because their fuel consumption reductions are minor and they can't be driven on electric power alone.

Looking to make the jump to a more fuel-efficient vehicle but still need the capability of a ute? Here's what currently fits that bill.

Brands often list prices before on-road costs, excluding statutory charges such as registration and stamp duty. We've therefore ranked this list by estimated drive-away prices for a buyer in New South Wales (Australia's most populous state), using each brand's online configurator where available.

Importantly, we've ranked this list based on the cheapest electrified dual-cab pickups available. This is partly because, despite the existence of several cab/chassis models, dual-cab pickups are generally cheaper once on-road costs are applied.

A list comprising only dual-cab pickups is also more consistent, but we've also listed pricing across the rest of each model range where applicable.

Note that we've chosen to avoid ranking these utes based on temporary discounts and deals as they can vary dramatically, but we've still mentioned any current offers where relevant.

GWM Cannon Alpha PHEV

Australia's cheapest electrified ute is currently the GWM Cannon Alpha PHEV, which starts at $57,490 drive-away.

It's actually cheaper than that for the time being, as GWM is offering discounts until May 31, 2026. That means the base Cannon Alpha Lux PHEV is now available for $54,490 drive-away ($3000 off), while the top-spec Ultra PHEV is available for $59,490 drive-away ($5000 off).

The plugless hybrid Cannon Alpha is no longer available, leaving the two PHEV grades as your only options for a hybrid GWM ute. Both are well-equipped, though, with interior highlights including two 12.3-inch screens for the infotainment system and instrument cluster, synthetic leather upholstery, and part-time four-wheel drive with a locking rear differential.

Powering both is a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine producing 180kW of power and 380Nm of torque, mated to an electric motor producing 120kW and 400Nm. Total system outputs are quoted at 300kW and 750Nm.

Energy comes from a 37.1kWh nickel manganese cobalt battery, providing a claimed EV-only driving range of 115km on the more lenient NEDC test cycle.

Ford Ranger Hybrid

Up next is the Ford Ranger Hybrid (née PHEV), which after a minor update for 'MY26.5' now starts at $59,000 drive-away.

Though Ford's drive-away pricing is technically listed as a temporary offer, there's no publicly available non-offer pricing, and there's no set date for when this pricing will end. We therefore have no choice but to rank it based on this pricing.

At the bottom of the range is now the stripped-back Hybrid XL, the first plug-in Ranger to be priced below $60,000. For context, the now-defunct PHEV XLT previously started at $71,990 before on-road costs.

There have been no changes to the Ranger Hybrid's powertrain, which still utilises a 2.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine outputting 138kW and 411Nm. This is mated with a 75kW electric motor, producing peak system outputs of 207kW and 697Nm.

Powered by an 11.8kWh nickel manganese cobalt battery, the Ranger Hybrid has a claimed EV-only range of 49km on the NEDC test.

KGM Musso EV

The cheapest electric ute currently on sale is the KGM Musso EV, which starts at $60,000 drive-away.

The South Korean electric ute was launched locally in December 2025, bringing reasonable specs at a reasonable drive-away price. But it's based on a car-like unibody platform, not a ladder frame, and the base 2WD variant is front-wheel drive. It has a claimed WLTP driving range of 420km, with its single electric motor producing up to 152kW of power and 339Nm of torque.

The top-spec AWD (all-wheel drive) version, meanwhile, costs $64,000 drive-away and brings more power at the expense of driving range. Its dual-motor setup is good for up to 266kW and 630Nm, though its claimed range is reduced to 379km.

Both dual-cab utes feature the same 80.6kWh lithium iron phosphate battery sourced from BYD. With the Musso EV, KGM has the distinction of being the first South Korean brand to sell an electric ute.

Inside, the Musso EV features two 12.3-inch screens for the infotainment system and instrument display, though there's no wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Black leatherette upholstery is standard, as is heating for the front and rear outboard seats.

BYD Shark 6

The smash-hit BYD Shark 6 dual-cab range has just been expanded, but it's the carryover Premium variant that's still cheapest including on-road costs. It's available for $62,660 drive-away in NSW.

That's despite the addition of the cheaper cab/chassis Dynamic at the bottom of the range, which cost $2000 less than the Premium before ORCs. However, according to BYD's configurator a buyer in NSW will pay $66,941 drive-away for a cab/chassis Shark.

Both the Shark 6 Dynamic and Premium utilise a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine producing 135kW and 260Nm, mated to dual electric motors for a combined output of 321kW and 650Nm.

The new Shark 6 Performance flagship, meanwhile, upgrades to a larger 2.0-litre turbo-four and more powerful electric motors, providing peak total outputs of 350kW and 700Nm. Where the Dynamic and Premium have NEDC EV range claims of 100km, the Performance offers only 80km.

The Dynamic's equipment highlights include a 10.25-inch digital instrument display, a 12.8-inch infotainment system, and wireless smartphone mirroring. The Premium upgrades to a 15.6-inch touchscreen.

Deepal E07

The Deepal E07 is among the more obscure entries into the Australian market of late, and in base RWD form, it costs $70,137 drive-away.

The half-SUV, half-ute 'Multitruck' feels and looks a lot like China's take on the infamous Tesla Cybertruck, and it's safe to say it's the only vehicle of its type currently on sale in Australia. It hardly looks like a ute at all, but since it technically has a tonneau cover and a ute-like tailgate, we've included it here.

The all-electric E07 is available in two trims. The base RWD utilises one electric motor producing 252kW and 365Nm, drawing power from an 89.98kWh nickel manganese cobalt CATL battery for a claimed WLTP driving range of 550km.

The flagship E07 AWD Performance has the same battery but has a shorter 510km claim, though its dual-motor electric setup is good for a quoted 440kW and 645Nm. That gives it a claimed 0-100km/h time of 4.4 seconds, making it the fastest vehicle on this list.

The equipment list is the same across the range, featuring a 15.4-inch rotating touchscreen, wireless smartphone mirroring, an 18-speaker sound system, and Nappa leather upholstery.

Toyota HiLux BEV

Toyota's electric HiLux is due to be launched imminently, and it'll do so with a starting price of $84,601 drive-away.

The HiLux BEV dual-cab will be sold in three grades – one cab/chassis and two pickups – and tops out at $89,447 drive-away. As with the cab/chassis Shark, the tray-equipped HiLux is more expensive than the dual-cab above it once on-road costs are applied.

The fleet-first ute will only be available with a dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain , incorporating 82kW/206Nm front and 129kW/269Nm rear electric motors for total system outputs of 144kW and 468Nm.

It has a 59.2kWh lithium-ion battery, with range “anticipated to be up to 315km on the NEDC cycle”.

Inside, it's fitted with two 12.3-inch screens for infotainment and instruments, wireless smartphone mirroring, and cloth upholstery, while the SR5 upgrades to leather-accented upholstery and heated seats.

Toyota Tundra

Toyota's largest pickup, the US-made Tundra, is the only full-size dual-cab to offer electrification in Australia. It starts at $164,893 drive-away, or double the price of the cheapest HiLux BEV.

It's available in two grades, with the top-spec Platinum estimated to cost $182,403 drive-away in NSW.

Both variants are powered by Toyota's 'i-Force Max' hybrid system – the Tundra is currently the only Toyota to utilise this family of powertrains in Australia. Overseas, it's also found in models like the LandCruiser 300 Series.

At its heart is a 3.6-litre twin-turbocharged petrol V6 producing 290kW and 649Nm, mated to an electric motor to deliver combined peak outputs of 326kW and 790Nm.

Inside, it's fitted as standard with a 12.3-inch instrument cluster, 14.0-inch touchscreen, wireless smartphone mirroring, 'premium' upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and a 12-speaker JBL sound system.
