Buying guide
Range drops significantly when towing or loaded
An electric ute's WLTP range is measured unladen at moderate speed. With a 1,000 kg payload, expect 15–25% range reduction. Towing a 2,000–3,000 kg trailer at 100 km/h can reduce range by 40–55%. Plan charging stops conservatively on working days or towing trips.
V2L capability can replace a generator
Many electric utes support Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) — the ability to power tools, lighting, and equipment from a standard 240V outlet built into the vehicle. The export wattage (typically 2.0–3.6 kW) determines what you can run. Most power tools, site lighting, and battery chargers are well within range.
Verify Australian-market towing and payload ratings
Braked towing capacity and payload vary significantly between markets. Always check the Australian-market specification sheet rather than global figures — ADR compliance adjustments sometimes affect these numbers. The GVM and GCM are the legally relevant ratings for work use.
