Terms of Use

1. About 1300EV

1300EV is an independent Australian website that publishes electric-vehicle prices, specifications, comparisons and Owner Verdicts, and features clearly labelled sponsored offers. 1300EV is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, any vehicle manufacturer.

2. Disclaimer: general information only

Everything on 1300EV is general information only. It is not financial, legal, insurance or purchasing advice, and it does not take your personal circumstances into account.

• Prices change often. Each price shows its type (for example, manufacturer's list price or drive-away), its source and the date we checked it. Always confirm the current price, specifications and availability with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy.
• Range figures are official laboratory figures unless stated otherwise. Real-world range varies with speed, weather, load and driving style.
• We work hard to be accurate, but information may contain errors or become out of date. Where we could not verify a figure, we say so.

3. Owner Verdicts and scores

Owner Verdicts are editorial summaries of publicly available owner reports, long-term tests and expert reviews. They are researched with AI assistance and checked by a human editor. Scores are our editorial judgement, not statistical averages. Every verdict lists its sources so you can check them yourself. We never accept payment for a verdict, score or ranking.

4. Sponsored content and partner offers

1300EV may receive advertising fees from selected business partners. Paid placements are clearly identified and do not influence our vehicle specifications, independent comparisons, Owner Verdict scores or editorial conclusions.

Paid placements and offers are always labelled "Sponsored". Offers are supplied by our partners, who are responsible for them, including their pricing, terms, availability and delivery. Sponsor links take you directly to the partner's own website, and any purchase or agreement is between you and the partner. We do not guarantee partner products or services, and we do not pass your personal information to partners.

5. Photos, third-party content and trademarks

Vehicle photos are manufacturer press images supplied to 1300Cars through Newspress Australia for editorial use, or photos from Wikimedia Commons used under their Creative Commons licences. To keep a consistent look, we replace the photo background with a plain studio background; the vehicle itself is not altered, and number plates are blurred. Credits appear under the photo on each car page and in full below, rather than on the image itself. Where a Commons licence is ShareAlike, our edited version is shared under the same licence.

Prices and specifications are drawn from manufacturer information, Australian Government sources (including the Green Vehicle Guide and the Vehicle Emissions Star Rating), ANCAP, and motoring publications such as Drive, CarExpert and CarsGuide. Each price shows its source and the date we checked it, and each car page names the source of its specifications. Where a figure has not yet been confirmed, we say so rather than estimate it.

Brand names, model names and logos are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to identify vehicles. Their use does not imply any affiliation or endorsement.

If you own content shown on 1300EV and believe it is used incorrectly, email info@1300ev.com.au with the page and details, and we will review it promptly and correct or remove it where appropriate.

6. Links to other websites

1300EV links to third-party websites, including sources, photo pages and partner sites. We do not control those websites and are not responsible for their content, offers or privacy practices.

7. Using the site

You may use 1300EV for your own personal, non-commercial research. You must not copy, scrape or republish our database, Owner Verdicts or other original content for commercial purposes without our written permission, or use the site in any way that is unlawful or that could damage, disable or overload it.

8. Our intellectual property

The 1300EV name, site design, written content, Owner Verdicts and the compilation of our database belong to 1300EV. Third-party content, including photos and quoted sources, remains the property of its owners and is used under its licence terms.

9. Your rights under Australian Consumer Law

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot be excluded. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss arising from your reliance on information on 1300EV or on a partner's offer, and our liability for any service we provide is limited to supplying that service again.

10. Advertisers and partners

Partners who advertise on 1300EV do so under a separate advertising agreement. We may decline or remove any advertisement or offer at our discretion, including any that is misleading or does not meet our standards.

11. Changes and governing law

We may update these terms from time to time, and the latest version will always be on this page. These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia.

12. Contact
