BYD Shark 6 deals bring cashback, financing offers
BYD is offering a few end-of-financial-year deals on its Shark 6 plug-in hybrid (PHEV) dual-cab ute following the end of Fringe Benefit Tax (FBT) breaks for novated lessees of PHEVs last month, including a cashback campaign and financing and leasing offers.
All ABN holders who take delivery of a Shark 6 between May 12 and June 30, 2025 are eligible for finance with a $0 deposit and a 1.99 per cent per annum interest rate over a 36-month term.
Deals on the BYD Shark 6 are available now. Contact a dealer via CarExpert for the best deal or call our Concierge team on 1300 587 992. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
This offer excludes demo vehicles, as well as government, fleet and rental buyers.
But BYD Shark 6 buyers who take delivery between May 1 and June 30 can receive fleet pricing, effectively a four per cent discount, if they order through a valid novated lease provider or fleet management organisation.
Discounted pricing excludes applicable state on-road costs, and demonstrator models are excluded from this offer.
'Don't let the end of the FBT benefits stall your ambitions,' BYD says on its offer page. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Per a post on the BYD Shark Owners Club Australia group on Facebook, certain Shark 6 buyers have also been offered $4000 cashback, to be received after taking delivery of their utes.
We've contacted the brand to confirm who qualifies for this offer, which doesn't appear on its website.
According to an email sent to a customer shared on Facebook, the offer will appear on the final tax invoice. Within three to five business days of taking delivery, eligible buyers will receive an email with a form to complete to redeem the offer.
This offer isn't applicable to demonstrator, fleet or government vehicle purchases, and cannot be combined with any other promotions, including financing and novated leasing offers currently available for the Shark 6.
The Shark 6 stormed into Australia's top 10 best-selling vehicles list in its first month of recorded deliveries, though there was a caveat here.
Of the 2026 deliveries recorded in VFACTS, 450 of those were actually delivered in January but weren't reported that month due to an administrative error. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Nevertheless, enthusiasm for the ute – particularly given the then-imminent end of the FBT exemption for PHEVs on April 1 – propelled it past the Isuzu D-Max and made it Australia's sixth best-selling model overall.
The Shark 6 held onto sixth spot in March with 2810 deliveries, again putting it ahead of the D-Max, though it dropped to 16th spot with 1293 deliveries in April.
It remains to be seen how Shark 6 sales will track in Australia following the end of the PHEV FBT exemption and the introduction of rivals including the GWM Cannon Alpha PHEV this month and Ford Ranger PHEV mid-year.

Skoda L&K 130 ute concept revealed with sliding door
The Skoda L&K 130 ute concept is designed to be a support vehicle for a professional cycling team. It is the 10th annual concept designed by the company's academy school students, and honours the company's 130th anniversary. The students transformed from the Superb Combi wagon into a ute by shortening the roof and roof rails, modifying the B- and C-pillars, and reinforcing the body. Naturally, there's a new wall and windscreen behind the rear seats to separate the tray from the cabin. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. Camera Icon Supplied Credit: CarExpert Camera Icon Supplied Credit: CarExpert There's also a new tailgate that, at the push of a button, slides out via a rack-and-pinion system to extend cargo tray. When extended, the two bikes housed in the tray-mounted rack slide down from 35 degrees to nearly horizontal to make loading and unloading easier. Overall length, at 4901mm, is unchanged from the regular Superb wagon. Another bike can stored on the roof rack, while the right rear door has sprouted an extra door handle as it slides back, like on a people mover, rather swinging outwards on the standard wagon. Camera Icon Škoda L&K 130: Concept Car Credit: CarExpert To keep track of movements of the bike racing team there are tablet displays on the dashboard and ahead of the passenger's seat, and a permanent internet connection. A radio for communication with the team is installed at the front of transmission tunnel, and a speaker is placed near the rear air conditioning vents. The seat behind the driver has been removed and replaced by a chilled esky, and the roof lining contains storage nets for snacks and bandages. The car's strong bike focus has been done to celebrate the company's history. Skoda began life as a bicycle manufacturer in 1895 as Lauren & Klement, named after founders Václav Laurin and Václav Klement. Car making began a decade later, and the company was bought by Skoda, an arms manufacturer, in 1925. Camera Icon Supplied Credit: CarExpert Camera Icon Supplied Credit: CarExpert Both the interior and exterior are finished in red, gold and black trim that's inspired by the original L&K emblem. 3D printed L&K badges are used both inside and out in place of Skoda's fast-disappearing winged arrow logo. The Superb's plug-in hybrid drivetrain is left untouched, and makes a combined 150kW and 350Nm from its 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine and electric motor combo. The 25.7kWh battery pack has WLTP range rating of 100km. MORE: Everything Skoda
