Audi's flagship EV getting cheaper with new base model
The Audi e-tron GT quattro slots in under the S e-tron GT in the updated electric sedan range, which was previously confirmed for release here during the first half of this year.
We've contacted Audi Australia to confirm if the new entry-level variant will also come here.

In Europe, it'll be priced from 108,900 euros (~A$188,000), which is 17,100 euros less than the S e-tron GT.
It features a 105kWh (97kWh) net battery capacity like the rest of the updated range, offering up to 622km of range under the WLTP cycle, DC fast-charging at up to 320kW, and a route planner that automatically pre-conditions the battery.
Energy consumption is listed at between 17.8 and 19.3kWh/100km, slightly better than the S e-tron GT (18-19.7kWh/100km) which also has slightly less range (609km) and weighs 30kg more.
The e-tron GT quattro's dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain produces 370kW of power, increasing to 430kW with launch control.
That gives the e-tron GT quattro a claimed 0-100km/h acceleration time of 4.0 seconds, which is 0.6 seconds slower than the S e-tron GT which has up to 500kW of power.
It's distinguished from the S e-tron GT through greater use of black trim up front, as well as unique 21-inch alloy wheels.
The e-tron GT quattro has a drag coefficient of 0.24Cd.
Audi's EVs posted a global sales decline of eight per cent in 2024, amid an overall decline for the brand of 12 per cent.
While deliveries of its EVs in Europe actually increased by six per cent last year, e-tron GT sales slumped 49 per cent – a decline surpassed only by the axed TT and Q8 e-tron Sportback.
In Australia, e-tron GT sales slumped 75.2 per cent compared to 2023, with just 84 reaching local buyers last year. Porsche sold more than twice as many of its related Taycan, with 282 delivered.
The launch of the new entry-level e-tron GT comes despite Audi's introduction of the A6 e-tron, which would appear to negate the need for a more accessible version of the flagship four-door sedan/coupe.
The updated e-tron GT range not only gets a new battery plus new variants such as the quattro and range-topping Performance, but also receives a new, lighter rear electric motor and revised suspension.
The sultry styling has been left effectively unchanged, though detail revisions include new paint colours and wheels.

2026 Toyota HiLux: Redesigned interior revealed in leaked patent diagrams
The heavily updated Toyota HiLux will supposedly launch by the end of the year, and these patent diagrams give us our first glimpse of the interior. We found these images on the cars_secrets Instagram account, which claims they are from a patent filing. These patent sketches match with recent spy photos showing that the 'new' HiLux is actually just an upgraded version of today's ute, but with a new front and rear. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. What we see for the first time is the HiLux's interior, which looks as though it will be a nicer and more modern place to be. The dashboard and centre console are all new, and in the centre of the dashboard is a widescreen infotainment display, likely the same 12.3-inch unit fitted to many recent Toyotas. It's possible lower-spec versions of the HiLux will have a smaller screen in the same spot. Below are the central vents and climate controls, although the patent images image give no clue as to whether it will have physical or capacitive controls. The set of vents and switches used in the LandCruiser Prado would fit in well with this HiLux's dash design, though. In the centre tunnel there's a chunky gear shifter, and what might be a set of drive toggles beside it. We can't see a hand brake anywhere, so it's likely to have been replaced by an electronic switch or maybe it's obscured by the centre arm rest. There seem to be cupholder slots in front of each side vent. Like the current HiLux there's a second covered storage area on top of the glove box. Back to the exterior, which features carry-over doors and roof. There is, however, a new front end with slim headlights, while at the rear the tail-lights wrap around further into the flanks. The model pictured here has slim, angular plastic wheel arch protectors, but judging from earlier spy photos, these won't be present on all model trims. Underneath it all is the IMV platform, which dates back to 2004. This will disappoint those looking for a more modern Toyota ute, and are unwilling to move to the US for such a privilege. The latest versions of the Tacoma, as well as the larger Tundra that's re-manufactured locally in right-hand drive, both ride on the TNGA-F body-on-frame architecture that also does duty under the latest LandCruiser and LandCruiser Prado, as well as their Lexus siblings. This means it's less likely the new HiLux will feature some of the more interesting power plants available in those cars. The Tacoma, for example, is available with a 2.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine available in three outputs: 170kW/329Nm, 201kW/420Nm, and 207kW/430Nm. There's also a hybrid version making 243kW/630Nm. And for those who want to dream a little bigger, the Tundra is sold with a 3.4-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol making 260kW/549Nm or 290kW/650Nm, as well as a hybridised version pumping out 326kW and 790Nm. By comparison, local versions of the current HiLux are available with 2.4- and 2.8-litre turbo-diesel engines, topping out with the 150kW/500Nm V-Active mild-hybrid and the GR Sport's 165kW/550Nm. The sole petrol offering here is a 122kW/245Nm 2.7-litre four-cylinder. The 235kW/376Nm 4.0-litre V6 sold in the Middle East isn't no longer available Down Under.

2025 Toyota Yaris Cross review
The Toyota Yaris Cross was launched in Australia way back in August 2020, and in 2024 it received an overdue upgrade to its interior technology. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert Note: This is a revised version of our most recent review of the Toyota Yaris Cross, as there have been no major changes to the model since it was published. We have updated key details such as pricing and specifications with the most up to date information available. Read our latest price and specs article here for all the details. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert It is the Japanese brand's smallest and most affordable 'SUV', but with flashy, affordable newcomers hitting the local light SUV scene in recent months, is this aging compact crossover still worth a look? Read on, and you'll find out. In 2024, Toyota adjusted the Yaris Cross lineup, from which the pure petrol-powered variants were dumped to make way for a hybrid-only range with some improved technology. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert As you may have predicted, that means the entry price has risen, and across the board this is a more expensive compact SUV than some of the others you might consider. Across most versions there is still the choice of front- or all-wheel drive, which improves its appeal among the front-drive dominant compact crossover segment. The Yaris Cross range is priced in a position where it is competing with newer models like the Chery Tiggo 4 and the latest MG ZS, as well as the refreshed Skoda Kamiq and Volkswagen T-Cross. If you want to see how the Toyota Yaris Cross lines up against the competition, check out our comparison tool There have certainly been some improvements to the cabin design of the updated Yaris Cross, with a bit more wow-factor courtesy of a larger new 8.0-inch infotainment screen and a now-standard fully-digital 7.0-inch instrument cluster. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert That driver info screen also has a number of themes and information displays on offer, and it's all very easy to get your head around by using the steering wheel controls to adjust what's on show. However, it is flanked by a set of more basic gauges, and while the screen sizes make it feel at least a bit more modern than its predecessor, by class standards it's already out of date. It might officially be a larger (small, rather than light) SUV, but for not that much more money the new MG ZS Hybrid+, for example, has twin 12.3-inch screens across the range. Even so, the useability and controls on offer in the Toyota are good, with a volume dial to make quick adjustments, and there are standard climate controls down below with buttons – far simpler than diving through menus on a screen. And maybe that's the best way to think of the cabin – simple, but effective. There are ample storage options up front, including a tray below the screen, and another in front of the gear selector – neither of which includes a wireless phone charger, unfortunately. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert Beyond that there are cupholders, a covered pocket in the adjustable centre armrest, and good sized bottle holders as well. The finishes are fine, but nothing special. There's cloth seat trim in the GXL, hard plastics across the dash, and a microfibre trim on the front doors, while rear seat occupants just get hard plastic finishes – great if you have grubby kids, but less good for adult elbows. Rear seat space is more generous than you might expect of a sub-4.2m SUV. At 182cm/6'1', I could fit behind my own driving position with my knees just brushing the seat ahead, but with good foot space and enough head and shoulder space to feel comfortable… but there was no-one next to me. Three across will be VERY tight, but you can fit two adults in the back with ease, or two child seats if you need to. There are outboard ISOFIX child seat anchor points and three top-tethers, and while the middle seat doesn't have a flip-down armrest, it does fold down completely to access a ski-port load-through space, and there are cupholders there, too. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert Otherwise, it's a bit bare in the second row, with just one map pocket on the front passenger's seat-back, and bottle holders in the doors. There are no air-vents, and no USB charge ports, either. The biggest annoyance with the second-row, though, is that the doors don't open very far. Lifting a kiddo in is painful, especially if you're an awkward unit, and you almost feel like you're going to rip the door clean off when you try and open it with too much gusto. Boot space is quite good in the Yaris Cross, with 390 litres of cargo capacity in the front-wheel drive versions, but that shrinks to just 314 litres in AWD models, because of the revised rear suspension design. There are a couple of shopping bag hooks and a light in the back, too. In 2WD variants you get a removable flooring system that allows you to get more out of the space, and below that there's still a space-saver spare wheel, as is standard in all versions. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert If you want to see how the Toyota Yaris Cross lines up against the competition, check out our comparison tool As mentioned, the Yaris Cross lineup has seen the traditional petrol engines dumped, with all models now running a petrol-electric hybrid system, which is now branded and badged HEV by Toyota. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert If you want to see how the Toyota Yaris Cross lines up against the competition, check out our comparison tool This is a good little SUV to drive, provided that you're okay with things being a little loud. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert There's a lot more engine noise in this car than in many rivals, with the three-cylinder engine offering a hearty warble in a mix of situations. It's probably exacerbated by the fact it's a hybrid, and the electric motor can take care of momentum at times – meaning that, in essence, it can be close to silent before the petrol engine makes quite the racket when it gets up and running. And it'll be even more vocal if you drive in B mode, rather than D. That mode is designed to maximise battery regeneration, and it will make the engine more actively work as a generator to fill up the battery to make EV driving more doable. The downside, yes, is that it vibrates notably and may also make you think there's something wrong with the car, if you're not familiar with how it all works. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert But it's not just the engine that's loud – it's generally a very noisy experience, with loads of road noise entering on rougher surfaces, and noticeable intrusion from outside elements like other cars, trucks, buses and even cicadas. Drive it in the rain, and you might be surprised how clearly you can hear the weather inside the cabin. But noisy stuff aside, it's a bloody good thing to drive. The steering is accurate and has some liveliness to it, with predictable responses at parking pace or when you're threading through traffic on the freeway. Ride comfort and body control are also very good. It has a slightly sharp edge to the suspension at times, but it feels assured and confident – bigger than its diminutive dimensions suggest, in fact. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert And the braking response is also excellent. It doesn't suffer from a lack of feel despite the regenerative braking system, and pulls up quickly and confidently. There is also a big plus in terms of safety technology integration. Unlike some of the other models in this class, it doesn't get on your nerves in terms of the tech. There is a speed sign recognition system, but it doesn't chime at you, and the lane-keeping technology is pretty well measured, too. While the powertrain is a vocal one, it's pretty smooth in the way it switches between EV and petrol modes, and if you really need to get on the move, it hustles along quicker than you'd expect. Really, it'll come down to whether you can handle the noise, vibration and harshness of the drive experience or not.

If you want to see how the Toyota Yaris Cross lines up against the competition, check out our comparison tool As with all Toyota models, the Yaris Cross is backed by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert If you service on time you'll eligible for seven years of powertrain warranty as well. Plus, if you service with Toyota, they'll check the battery and hybrid system, with those annual health-checks ensuring a 10-year warranty cover on the battery bits. Toyota offers capped-price servicing for the first five years or 75,000km, whichever comes first. Servicing is required every 12 months or 15,000km, with each visit costing $250. Cheap! You'll need to budget an extra hundred bucks a year for roadside assistance, though. Many other brands include that in the purchase price, but charge a little more for maintenance. If you want to see how the Toyota Yaris Cross lines up against the competition, check out our comparison tool You could do worse than to get into a Toyota Yaris Cross. This is an efficient and interesting little SUV, with some clever interior packaging and an improved cabin design. 2025 Toyota Yaris Cross Credit: CarExpert But you'll have to be okay with a noisy drive experience, and it lacks some bling compared to newer rivals. Even so, we'd suggest you give it a go if you're in the market for a city-friendly hybrid SUV. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new Toyota Yaris Cross.
