AutoExec Summary
The Nissan Ariya’s launch in New Zealand has been postponed due to market volatility, but it is still on track for Australia with no confirmed launch timing. The semiconductor chip shortage delayed the global launch to 2022, and Australia was confirmed to receive the electric SUV in June 2023. The New Zealand EV market has seen a significant decline in sales after the federal EV incentive program was axed. Australia is introducing new federal emissions regulations in 2025, which will penalize carmakers for exceeding CO2 emissions targets.
Brands mentioned: Nissan, Tesla, Renault, Nissan Patrol.
