If you have been circling a plug-in ute, the calendar is now the story. BYD's free on-road costs offer on the BYD Shark 6 Premium closes on 30 September 2026, which leaves nine days to get an order in.
What the deal is
The offer applies to orders placed between 1 August and 30 September 2026, with the Shark 6 Premium at $57,900 drive away and the on-road costs waived. The Shark 6 is the best-selling plug-in ute in the country, so this is a sharp price on a proven seller rather than a clearance on slow stock.
Cartell Assessment
End of month is always when the offers get keenest, and this one hangs a hard deadline on a genuine volume model. If your deposit is ready and a plug-in ute is on your list, the maths is simple: order before 30 September or pay the on-roads after it.
AU Outlook
Expect BYD to follow one deadline with another as the plug-in ute price war rolls on. The Shark 6 has set the pace all year, and rivals like the GWM Cannon Hi4-T are now undercutting it, so the pressure to keep sharpening the offer is not going away.
