Why novated-lease a BYD Dolphin?

An electric hatch, from around $30,000 drive-away. On a novated lease the numbers get better again, because the payments and the running costs come out of your salary before tax.

Is the BYD Dolphin FBT exempt?

Yes, in the normal case. The BYD Dolphin is battery-electric, so as long as its drive-away price is at or under $91,661 (the 2026-27 fuel-efficient luxury car tax threshold) it is FBT exempt on a novated lease. That is what makes an EV the strongest novated lease going: the whole package comes out of pre-tax salary with no FBT to pay.

An honest note: FBT exempt means no fringe benefits tax is payable, but the benefit is still reported on your income statement. That reported amount can affect income-tested things like HECS or HELP repayments, the Medicare levy surcharge, and family payments. Our calculator and team will always show you the full picture.

What it costs, with nothing hidden

Most providers quote a weekly figure and keep the fees and the real interest rate out of sight. We do the opposite: one flat $1,500 fee, the true effective rate shown plainly, and the BYD Dolphin’s drive-away price built to your state. The calculator gives you your number, not a national average.
