According to the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries 23.6 per cent of vehicle sales in June in Australia were EVs. That means one in four buyers drove an EV out of the showroom in the month. That's up from 7.6 per cent the same time a year ago. Chinese brands are leading the charge, BYD sales nationally came a very close second to Toyota in the month. Breaking down the national figures, BYD beat Toyota sales in Victoria and Queensland. Steve Bragg, lead partner at Pitcher Partner told The Business, that with few trade barriers, Australia has one of the highest penetrations of Chinese brands in the western world. "There's ten OEM's with 20 plus brands and a dozen or more so coming so Australia's market has over 80 brands." More than 25% of all cars sold in 2026 so far were made by a Chinese brand name like BYD. He expects it's very likely that the penetration of C...

- 18 lenders cut variable rates to win new customers, says Canstar | The Business | ABC NEWS

- Description
- Competition is heating up among mortgage providers even as the housing market cools and interest rates stay put. Canstar says the total number of lenders that have cut new customer variable rates since the May rate hike, now stands at 18. Canstar's data insights director, Sally Tindall says home borrowers should be looking for a loan rate that has a five in front of it if they want a competitive deal. "Competition among lenders continues to create opportunities for some households to cut their borrowing costs. But the bigger gains still typically come from refinancing." She said.
Sally Tindall says smaller lenders are leading the way. "The standout move came from Bendigo Bank, which cut its lowest variable rate for refinancers by 0.15 percentage points and is now one of 15 lenders offering a rate below 5.90 per cent." She said.
She says it's unclear how long the competitive environment will remain.

Over 10 years midwife Celyn Tusalah rebuilt the Bougainville College of Nursing on nothing but determination, and a big idea.
