The inside scoop on novated leasing
A novated lease is a term you may have heard some of your financially savvy friends talk about but actually what is it and how does it work? In technical terms, a novated lease is…

The Design & Features
From its silhouette to the iconic pony badge, the all-electric Mach-E is unmistakably Mustang, with the performance to match. Only now, there’s enough room for the whole family.
Starting at the front, the Mach-E features active grille shutters to maintain optimal thermal performance without sacrificing aerodynamics. These shutters open automatically when needed to ensure Mach-E’s electric powertrain performs at its peak – no matter the conditions.
With an impressive driving range of 470km, the Mach-E comes with 19-inch alloy wheels with aero covers to reduce aerodynamic drag, a heated steering wheel and artificial leather seats for ultimate driving comfort. The front seats are also heated and eight-way powered.
Other standard features include a massive glass panoramic sunroof which floods the interior with light, a massive vertical tablet-style 15.5-inch infotainment screen, a 10-speaker B&O sound system, a 10.2-inch digital instrument pack (in an ultra-slim panoramic aspect ratio).
It has adaptive cruise control, remote connectivity features, a wireless phone charging pad, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, an electric tailgate and keyless entry buttons that illuminate when the key is nearby.
A signature design cue of the Ford Mustang since 1964, the Mach-E repurposes Mustang’s taillights with a tri-bar sequential LED arrangement.
There’s certainly plenty of room in the Mach-E, with generous leg and headroom in the back. 60/40 split-fold rear seats and two ISOFIX points which make it perfect for both kids and adults alike.
That said, it would be a bit of a squeeze fitting three adults or teens across the rear bench.
Whether packing for a lengthy road trip or loading the weekly shop, the Mach-E offers a practical and flexible load space in both the front and rear of the vehicle. The under-bonnet storage is slightly larger than that of the Tesla Model Y.
All in all, it’s a first-rate electric SUV.
There might not be a V8 under the bonnet, but there’s definitely a Mustang spirit in the Mach-E.
