WATT MATTERS?

The Shark 6 changed the conversation about electrified utes by making performance and plug-in capability part of a mainstream dual-cab package. Its appeal goes beyond fuel savings.

THE BASICS

The all-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid uses a 29.58kWh Blade Battery and claims 100km electric range under ADR81/02 conditions. Towing, payload and off-road requirements deserve their own careful checks.

THE WATTCAR TAKE

For buyers whose ute spends much of its life commuting, the plug-in proposition is intriguing. But workhorse suitability must be judged on load, towing and real-world operating needs, not headline kilowatts.
