Lepas L6 Electric SUV Cleared for Australian Market, Launch Expected in Late 2026

Lepas, a sub-brand of the Chinese automaker Chery, has taken a significant step toward its entry into the Australian market. The L6, an all-electric SUV designed for families, has received official approval for sale in the country. This clearance sets the stage for a planned launch in the fourth quarter of 2026.

The L6 marks Lepas’s debut model, and its approval underscores the brand’s commitment to bringing practical, electric mobility options to Australian drivers.
