2026 KGM Musso EV: Pricing and key specs revealed

KGM Australia has launched the Musso EV, with the brand’s first fully electric ute set to go on sale from December 1.

At release, the range will include 2WD and AWD variants, plus a 2WD Black Edge edition. Recommended drive-away pricing for private buyers starts at $60,000 for the 2WD, $62,000 for the 2WD Black Edge, and $64,000 for the AWD.

The EV will sit alongside the existing 2.2-litre turbo-diesel Musso line-up, which includes EX, ELX, Ultimate and Ultimate Luxury grades in standard and XLV form. The Musso range was refreshed earlier this year.

Power comes from an 80.6kWh LFP blade battery. The 2WD uses a 152kW/339Nm front motor, while the AWD adds a second 152kW/339Nm rear motor for a combined 175kW and 630Nm. Claimed range is 420km for the 2WD (230Wh/km efficiency) and 380km for the AWD (260Wh/km). The battery uses Cell-to-Cell construction for improved energy density and impact protection.

Regenerative braking offers three levels of adjustment via steering-wheel paddles, with adaptive control based on gradients and traffic. With 300kW DC fast charging, KGM claims a 20 to 80 per cent charge takes roughly 31 minutes. The Musso EV also supports custom charge limits and Vehicle-to-Load power for tools, camping gear and other equipment. Self-levelling rear suspension is standard, aimed at improving stability and safety when carrying heavy loads.

“This is more than just an electric ute – it’s a turning point,” said Joseph Lee, Managing Director at KGM Australia. “The Musso EV is purpose-built for lifestyle drivers who want practicality, efficiency and weekend-ready versatility in one package. It’s a vehicle that embraces the outdoor lifestyle while pushing the boundaries of innovation. This highly anticipated new vehicle offers KGM Australia the opportunity to lead into the lifestyle electric ute space.”

Exterior features include a reshaped bonnet, dot-pattern LED DRLs with integrated indicators, LED headlights, a 3D black grille and a silver skid plate. The C-pillar carries an integrated sail plane and “Rhino” emblem, while the tailgate features a debossed KGM logo, LED combination lamps and a bumper with corner steps.

Inside, the Musso EV runs a panoramic dashboard layout with a 12.3-inch digital cluster and 12.3-inch centre touchscreen using the brand’s Athena 2.0 system. Features include heated and cooled powered front seats, ambient lighting, and rear seats with an 80mm slide range, 32-degree recline, heating for the outer positions, and 60/40 adjustability. Headroom is listed at 1002mm.

The EV shares the same tub dimensions as the rest of the Musso line-up, and includes eight tie-down hooks and a moulded tub liner. 

Vehicles will arrive at select KGM dealerships in November, with sales to officially commence from December 1, 2025.
