Nissan Ariya listed from $42,990 drive-away in an October offer
Nissan Australia is advertising the all-electric Nissan Ariya from $42,990 as a recommended drive-away price on the Engage grade. The live Ariya page lists Engage at $42,990, Advance at $44,990, Advance+ at $51,990 and Evolve e-4ORCE at $60,990. Those figures are campaign drive-away prices, not a fresh before on-road list, and they are not finance quotes.
The national offers footnote says the Ariya drive-away figures are a maximum recommended drive-away price for private and ABN buyers on new and demonstrator Ariya vehicles purchased from 1 October 2026 to 31 October 2026, and delivered by 30 November 2026. Stock is limited, participating dealers only, and government, rental and national fleet buyers are excluded. Premium and two-tone paint cost extra. Where no postcode is selected, Nissan's model-page disclaimer bases the shown drive-away on Sydney, NSW, and says the price is indicative and may vary by location.
October drive-away table
Keep these rows on one pricing basis only. They are recommended drive-away campaign prices for the October purchase window, not before on-road costs, and not a postcode-perfect quote for every Australian garage address.
Ariya grade | Recommended drive-away (campaign) | Battery and drive notes on the Nissan page |
|---|---|---|
Engage | $42,990 | 63 kWh, front-wheel drive, 160 kW / 300 Nm, 385 km indicative range |
Advance | $44,990 | 63 kWh pack grade with extra comfort and audio kit listed on the grade card |
Advance+ | $51,990 | 87 kWh, 178 kW, 504 km indicative range |
Evolve e-4ORCE | $60,990 | 87 kWh dual-motor AWD, up to 600 Nm combined, 1,500 kg braked towing listed |
Range figures on the grade cards are manufacturer indicative driving ranges. Real-world distance varies with speed, weather, load and charging habits. Evolve's towing figure is the braked capacity Nissan publishes for that grade, not a licence to ignore GVM and nose-weight limits.
Offer rules buyers must match
Match the contract to the footnote, not to a social-media summary. The buyer type must be private or ABN. The vehicle must be new or demonstrator Ariya stock. The purchase date must fall between 1 October and 31 October 2026. Delivery must land by 30 November 2026. The offer is not transferable and not redeemable for cash. Nissan can vary, extend or withdraw it, and availability sits with participating dealers while stocks last.
Rule | Official basis |
|---|---|
Price type | Maximum recommended drive-away for the campaign window |
Default postcode basis when none selected | Sydney, NSW on the Ariya page disclaimer |
Included on-road style items (disclaimer) | 12 months registration, 12 months CTP, estimated dealer delivery, stamp duty, any applicable LCT |
Extra cost | Premium and two-tone paint |
Excluded buyers | Government, rental and national fleet |
Do not line these drive-away numbers up against an older before on-road price in the same sentence. Nissan's live Ariya and offers pages checked for this article show the campaign drive-away figures and conditions. They do not publish a paired before on-road comparison table on those same live pages, so this story does not claim a dollar saving or say the price has been cut.
What the grades give you
Engage is the entry electric SUV card with the 63 kWh battery, 19-inch aero-cover alloys, dual 12.3-inch screens and ProPilot with lane-keep assist on the published feature list. Advance adds kit such as the around-view monitor, hands-free power tailgate, Bose audio and heated front seats. Advance+ moves to the larger 87 kWh battery, a head-up display, panoramic glass roof and ventilated front seats. Evolve adds e-4ORCE dual-motor all-wheel drive, Nappa leather trim on the grade card, 20-inch aero-cover alloys and the 1,500 kg braked tow rating.
Warranty messaging on the Ariya page still points at Nissan's longer cover when servicing stays inside the Nissan network. Confirm the exact warranty schedule on the contract. For charging-network context while you weigh an EV, see Ampol's agreement to buy the Evie charging network. Shoppers comparing mid-size electric SUVs can also read the electric SUVs under $60,000 guide and the separate note on Tesla Model 3 pricing, remembering those are different body styles and price bases.
Who this October window suits
The offer suits private or ABN buyers who can secure stock and take delivery by 30 November 2026. It does not suit buyers who need a guaranteed price outside Sydney without a postcode quote, or fleet channels Nissan excludes. If your postcode changes stamp duty or registration, ask the dealer for a written drive-away for that garage address before you sign. The Nissan X-Trail remains a different petrol and e-POWER product line, so do not treat Ariya drive-away figures as X-Trail prices.
In short, Nissan Australia is publishing Ariya from $42,990 drive-away on Engage for October purchases with November delivery, with higher grades listed through $60,990 drive-away on Evolve. Treat the numbers as campaign drive-away offers with location and stock limits, get a postcode-specific written quote, and keep paint extras off the comparison line.
