v2g compatible cars 2023 Page 8

If you wanted your car to moonlight as a power station in 2023, the list in Australia was brutally short. The only widely V2G-ready model on sale was the Nissan Leaf (CHAdeMO), usable with approved bidirectional chargers in local trials.

The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has CHAdeMO hardware and supports bidirectional use in some regions, but in Australia it was mostly V2H talk rather than mainstream grid export. Popular CCS EVs—think Ioniq 5/6, EV6, Atto 3, MG ZS EV—offered V2L only in 2023, not true V2G. CCS-based V2G relies on ISO 15118-20 features, which were still rolling out.
