The ARCFOX T1 is redefining the electric crossover SUV segment in New Zealand. Designed for drivers who want standout style without compromising on space, safety, or everyday practicality, the T1 pairs a sculpted, frameless-window silhouette with a genuinely spacious cabin and a suite of advanced driver-assist features.
With a WLTC-rated range of up to 310km, a permanent magnet motor producing 70kW and 176N.m of torque, and rapid DC fast charging from 30–80% in just 25 minutes, the ARCFOX T1 is built for real-world New Zealand driving, from city commutes to weekend getaways.
Backed by a 6-year/200,000km warranty there’s never been a better time to make the switch to electric.
The ARCFOX T1 comes fully loaded with a comprehensive ADAS suite as standard, including:
Plus core safety essentials: ABS, EBD, ESP, TCS/ASR, dual front and side airbags, side air curtains, hill hold and hill descent control, and tyre pressure monitoring.
Measuring 4337mm long and 1860mm wide, the ARCFOX T1 is sized to suit New Zealand’s mix of city streets and suburban driveways, while still offering a wheelbase of 2770mm for genuine passenger room. Styling highlights include:
Cloud - Comfort Embrace Seating
Three-Tone Interior Design That Conveys Warmth and Character in Every Moment, Whether Still or in Motion
Agile Control That Responds to Your Every Move
Spacious Interior
Fold the 40/60 split rear seats flat and the boot opens up to swallow everything from the weekly shop to weekend gear.
Frameless windows and semi-hidden door handles for a clean, uninterrupted silhouette
International interest in affordable, long-range electric cars has been building fast, and the ARCFOX T1’s arrival in New Zealand gives local drivers a chance to be part of that shift early. With a limited-time launch offer bringing the price down to $34,990+ORC (RRP $36,990+ORC) and a 6-year/200,000km warranty for peace of mind, the T1 is positioned as one of the more accessible entry points into EV ownership currently available in New Zealand.
Whether you’re considering your first electric vehicle or looking to add a practical, efficient second car to the household, the ARCFOX T1 is worth a closer look and a test drive.
The ARCFOX T1 has a recommended retail price of $36,990 plus on-road costs. Actual prices vary with current offers and available stock, so the best way to see today’s pricing is to browse our current Arcfox T1 vehicles.
The T1 is rated at up to 310km on the WLTC cycle. For most drivers that covers a full week of city commuting between charges. Expect less in winter, at open-road speeds, or with the boot loaded for a trip away. Every EV behaves the same way.
Every T1 gets the full driver-assist package. The system operates at Level 2, meaning it helps with steering, braking and parking while the driver stays in charge. Adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, forward collision and pedestrian warnings, and lane departure warning are all included, along with a 360-degree camera that can display the road surface beneath the car. Automatic parking assist handles parallel and perpendicular spaces. Dual front and side airbags, curtain airbags, hill hold, hill descent control and tyre pressure monitoring are standard as well.
The T1 comes with a 6-year, 200,000km warranty, whichever comes first. Plenty of brands cap cover at 100,000km or 150,000km, so if you cover long distances the T1 protects you further into ownership. Ask our team about servicing when you book a test drive.
More spacious than the exterior suggests. A 2770mm wheelbase, long for a car that is 4337mm nose to tail, frees up real legroom, so four adults travel without fighting over space. The cabin runs a three-tone colour scheme with comfort-focused seats, and the 40/60 rear seats fold flat when the boot needs to take more than the weekly shop. Outside, five colours are available: White, Blue, Purple, Grey and Silver Cloud.
