Urgent Update: ADR 79/05 Changes & The Future of Japanese Hybrid Imports

The window for importing your dream Japanese hybrid into Australia is closing faster than anticipated. Following the introduction of the ADR 79/05 emissions rule (Euro 6d), the pipeline for highly sought-after JDM hybrids is facing severe restrictions. If you have been considering an upgrade, the time to act is now.

Recent regulatory changes require imported vehicles to pass a rigorous 160,000 km durability test, effectively blocking new approvals for popular models like the Toyota Prius, Alphard, Vellfire, and Nissan Note. While vehicles already holding SEVS approvals can still be imported until their current listing expires, these approvals will not be renewed. For example, the SEVS approval for the Honda Stepwgn RP5 expires this August, and others will follow suit shortly.

What does this mean for buyers in Melbourne and across Australia? If you want to secure a low-kilometre, fuel-efficient Japanese import car before supply dries up and local prices inevitably rise, you need to move quickly. The weak Japanese Yen currently provides up to 9% more purchasing power compared to last year, making this the perfect moment to capitalize on favorable exchange rates before the regulatory door shuts completely.
