v2h compatible cars 2023

Vehicle-to-home (V2H) technology is the automotive equivalent of a Swiss Army knife: not every car has it, but those that do can power your house during a blackout or even save you a fortune on electricity bills. For 2023, the lineup remains modest but promising. Tesla's Model Y and the Nissan Leaf are among the more prominent contenders, boasting V2H capabilities that let you use your car's battery as a home power source.

Expect batteries around 40-75 kWh, with power outputs sufficient for basic home use. Prices for these cars range from about $45,000 to $80,000 AUD new, with used options trickling in on sites like Tradingpost and CarShowroom. Keep in mind, true V2H functionality also depends on compatible home inverter systems, so check your setup carefully.
