In response to the NSW Government announcing that it will wind up its $3000 electric vehicle rebate on 31 December 2023 after the Victorian Government did the same on 30 June this year, BYD Australia has come to the assistance of purchasers in NSW with the assurance that everyone will have the ability to secure a BYD EV to take advantage of the limited rebate (capped at 25,000 since its inception) as long as they do not delay their purchase. BYD Automotive is also offering a further $500 Rebate top up on all Atto 3's purchased and delivered by the end of the year. 

From 11am, Tuesday 21 November until 31 December 2023, BYD Automotive will have in place at its BYD Megastore in Alexandria, a dedicated rebate team (including a hotline and online response team), to accommodate what is expected to be a busy purchasing period for those looking to take advantage of up to $3500 off their EV purchase.  

To date, BYD Automotive Australia - has sold over 12,000 EV's in the country with 301,833 sold just last month globally. It has also added two new models to the marketplace this year, including the BYD SEAL Sedan starting delivery from December 2023, and the BYD DOLPHIN which started deliveries in October.  

Luke Todd, CEO and MD of BYD Automotive's Australian distributer EVDirect.com, says, "Just as we did for Victorians before their government's electric vehicle rebate ended on 30 June this year, it is important for us as a company to now rally for those in NSW ahead of the announcement that the rebate scheme will end on 31 December 2023. BYD will commit an unlimited number of award-winning BYD ATTO 3s for delivery to NSW buyers who are eligible for the $3000 rebate."

Mr Todd added that the BYD DOLPHIN and SEAL models will also be available to purchasers looking to take advantage of the $3000 rebate by ordering before 31 December 2023.

"What we've uncovered, is that many prospective EV buyers are not aware that the NSW rebate in capped at 25,000 across the state since it was first announced. We expect purchasing activity to ramp up over the next six weeks as a result of its' wind down, so we urge those considering going electric, to get in fast to avoid disappointment," Mr Todd concluded. 

The announcement comes as BYD Automotive launched its own EV portable charger arm EVSwitch.com, which has further reinforced its mission to make EV ownership affordable for every Australian, with the chargers priced at just $499.
