A novated lease for a Kia EV9 offers substantial financial benefits. By using pre-tax dollars for your lease payments, you lower your taxable income, resulting in significant tax savings. Additionally, you avoid paying GST on the vehicle purchase price and its running costs, further enhancing your savings. The money you save easily equates to tens of thousands of dollars.

The Kia EV9 isn’t currently eligible for FBT exemptions for EVs because it is valued above the luxury car tax (LCT) threshold, which is $91,387 for the financial year 2025/26. However, novated leasing still makes it easy to manage costs with predictable, pre-tax repayments. 

Add the low running costs of an electric SUV — minimal maintenance, no petrol and affordable public or home charging — and you could still see meaningful savings compared with a traditional petrol or diesel vehicle.

There isn't a fixed minimum salary requirement for a novated lease on a Kia EV9. Instead, approval depends on your overall financial situation and capacity as a borrower. Factors such as your income, living expenses, and any financial dependents are considered to determine your ability to make regular lease payments over the term. It’s important to consult with Leaselab to evaluate your specific situation and explore your options for a Kia EV9 novated lease.

Absolutely. With a large battery, fast-charging capability and a comfortable cabin, the EV9 handles long distances easily. Pair it with Australia’s growing charging network and your novated lease covers both convenience and comfort.

With a Kia EV9, you won’t be able to add the home charger or cable to your novated lease unless it comes standard with the car. The ATO allows two ways to claim EV charging, depending on where and how you charge. You pick a method for the FBT year, and changes can only happen between years through your lease provider.
