Should you lease an EV?

Should you lease an EV?

Author: Fear and Greed June 6, 2026 Duration: 21:23

Fear & Greed is proud to share an episode of our sister podcast - How Do They Afford That? - out every Wednesday, wherever you get your podcats.

There's been a real spike in EV ownership lately, and not just because of the soaring cost of petrol and diesel. There are also some significant tax incentives - and while the federal government is planning to wind these back over the next few years, for now they're still in place. Join Canna Campbell - a financial planner for 20 years - and Fear & Greed's Michael Thompson as they look at the costs and benefits of using a novated lease for a new electric vehicle.

Canna and Michael have written a book! Twelve Months to Financial Freedom will hit the shelves on September 1 - but you can preorder your copy right now.
