New Cars Australia 2027: Ora 5 Plus, Haval H10 and Santa Fe

Australian rideshare drivers have three electrified vehicles to watch: the GWM Ora 5 Plus EV, GWM Haval H10 plug-in hybrid and Hyundai Santa Fe range extender. The latest headlines flag Australian arrivals, but leave important questions about working-day costs and charging unanswered.

GWM Ora 5 Plus

The Ora 5 Plus brings a stated range and a bigger boot into the Australian launch picture. For drivers considering an electric car for airport runs, those are useful starting points—not proof that it will suit a full shift. Zecar

• Set for Australia in 2027.
• Electric drivetrain.
• Stated range of 520 km.
• Bigger boot.

The headline does not identify the range-testing standard, charging speed, battery capacity or price. Treat the range as a figure to investigate rather than a guaranteed distance between charging stops.

GWM Haval H10

The Haval H10 announcement combines a confirmed Australian destination with seven seats and a plug-in hybrid drivetrain. It is a model to watch for drivers assessing passenger capacity alongside electrification. EV Central

• Confirmed for Australia in 2027.
• Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV).
• Seven seats.

The headline does not state an Australian price, electric-only range or fuel consumption. Seven seats alone also do not establish luggage capacity with every seat occupied, or eligibility for a particular rideshare category.

Hyundai Santa Fe EREV

The Santa Fe update adds a range-extender vehicle to the Australian arrival picture. Unlike the two GWM headlines, this announcement does not provide an arrival year. Zecar

• Coming to Australia.
• Extended-range electric vehicle (EREV).
