Eight years ago, opening a dealership in Christchurch dedicated entirely to electric vehicles seemed a bit unconventional. Some people even thought the idea was mad. Today, we are incredibly proud to share that EV City has been named the top dealership in the country.

At the 2026 BuyerScore Awards, which are decided entirely by verified customer feedback, EV City took home three major titles:

Supreme Award: Number 1 Dealership in New Zealand (across all sizes and categories)

Number 1 Medium Dealership in New Zealand

Number 1 Medium Dealership in Canterbury

We have always believed that we are in the business of hospitality first, and cars second. This result is a direct reflection of our hardworking team. From Trish managing the operations and keeping us organized, to Nick and Jordan delivering unmatched vehicle knowledge on the floor, to Rob making the impossible deliveries happen behind the scenes his win belongs to them.

The night was also about acknowledging the community that supports us. We took the opportunity to celebrate our seven-year partnership with the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra. While our focus is keeping people moving on the roads, the CSO moves people emotionally. Together, we have supported programs that reach over 36,000 participants in local hospitals, schools, and prisons.

Watch the video below to catch the speeches, a few laughs, and the highlights from an unforgettable night.

To our original believers, our partners, and every customer who has trusted us over the last eight years thank you.

Must get a gas generator installed on my roof.

Just a thought!

Blacked out, decked out, and smarter than ever. This 2020 Tesla Model 3 in stealth black comes with full self-drive, a yoke steering wheel, carbon fiber finesse, and all the chrome gone. This isn’t just a car; it’s a statement on wheels. Ready to turn heads and drive itself.

Advertising is hard. Just like you could be! Not sure our latest ideas hit the mark but perhaps some of them will hit the spot!

No yoke.
No tweet-based product decisions.
No promises of Mars “next year”.

Just a properly finished, outrageously quick, ridiculously good-value EV that does exactly what it says on the packaging every day without asking you to adopt the CEO’s personality as an optional extra.

Smooth, silent, techy in the useful way.
Built by an actual car company.
Priced for Earth.

The Seal.
Because some of us just want to drive… not join a cult.

“BYD Shark with towbar fitted. Ready to haul your boat to the Sounds while the EV naysayers are still arguing in the comments section of articles they didn’t read.
They swore EVs couldn’t tow, couldn’t last, couldn’t survive a drizzle… yet here you are, dragging a boat while they’re dragging their knuckles.
Charge it. Hook it. Prove them wrong by simply turning the key. Or pushing start as we do when in 2025.
