Tesla Model Y L Lands with V2L, Leapmotor’s Big Australia Push, Chery’s iCaur Off-Road Attack, VW...

In this episode of Plugged In Australia, Tesla’s six-seat Model Y L begins Australian deliveries with 681 kilometres of claimed WLTP range, more family space and the first factory vehicle-to-load system on an Australian Tesla. 
Leapmotor lays out a serious Australian growth plan with one global brand, the B05 electric hatch due this year, a B05 Ultra performance version expected to follow, a D19 flagship SUV under export study, conventional keys finally coming, and a ute still possible but blocked by the lack of a ladder-frame platform. 
Geely previews its next-generation Galaxy concept, a 745 kilowatt new-energy off-road platform and high-efficiency hybrid tech. 
Cadillac prepares to expand its EV dealer network across Australia and New Zealand as Lyriq prices fall and Optiq and Vistiq arrive. 
GWM explains why it still sees smaller EVs as the smarter play while promising more conventional electric models. Chery’s Lepas, iCaur and Freelander brands sharpen their Australian plans with the iCaur V27 and V25 electric and range-extender off-road SUVs locked in. 
Volkswagen’s ID.Polo points to a more affordable, more normal EV reset with physical buttons and familiar nameplates. We also unpack Australia’s incoming plug-in hybrid and EREV wave. 
AEVA’s call for a universal vehicle levy instead of an EV-only road tax, and the Zeekr 8X plug-in hybrid SUV with 1030 kilowatts and supercar-level acceleration.
