At Rostron New Zealand, we believe in a sustainable future, and what better way to contribute than with an electric vehicle (EV)? With government initiatives and increasing interest in clean, green transportation, now is the perfect time to invest in an EV. To help you get behind the wheel, we offer EV loan and financing solutions nationwide, designed to suit your budget and needs.
An EV loan is a financing product specifically designed to help you purchase an electric vehicle. It works just like a standard car loan — you borrow the amount you need, agree on a repayment term and interest rate, and pay it back in regular weekly, fortnightly, or monthly instalments. You choose the car. We find the best lender. You get the keys. Rostron handles the complex stuff, such as negotiations, paperwork, and lender matching — so you can focus on your first electric drive.
Here's what Rostron can finance under our EV loan product.
100% battery powered — no fuel, no emissions. Brands like Tesla, BYD, Hyundai Ioniq, MG ZS EV, and more.
Runs on electric for short trips, petrol for longer journeys. Includes models like the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and Toyota RAV4 Prime.

The vehicle is used as security for the loan. Because the lender has an asset backing the debt, interest rates are typically lower. Most popular choice for EV purchases.
No asset used as collateral. Rates may be slightly higher, but you retain full ownership of the vehicle from day one. Suitable for older or private-sale vehicles.
Already financing an EV elsewhere? Rostron can help you refinance to a better rate. We'll compare your current terms against what's available today and find the savings.
Rostron connects you to over 75 of NZ's top banks and finance providers.

“I had the confidence I was getting the best deal. Rostron provided a really simple & smooth process”

Our experience with ROSTRON has been incredible!
This is the first time I have used any external finance broker for any sort of loan. I was always skeptical of using external companies and always preferred to deal directly with banks. But I can definitely say Rostron Finance...
Exceptional Service at Rostron Finance!
Massive thank you to Alexander! The customer service through the entire process of buying a new car has been incredible. Alexander was open, honest and so helpful, you felt like he was going above and beyond to help you. You didn’t feel like just another sale, like how some dealerships make you feel. Honestly ask for Alexander to help you with your finance!
Navigating Financial Solutions with Rostron!
Thank you Hamish from Rostron for absolutely amazing customer service and wealth of knowledge in sorting out our business car loan. Exceptionally fast responses to all our inquiries, attention to detail in preparing our documents, very knowledgeable approach. We dealt with Rostron Finance few times now and each time service exceeds our expectations.
A Five-Star Experience with Rostron's Professional Team!
I had a fantastic experience with Hamish in sorting out my loan for my car. Every question I could think of had an answer, if I had an alternate suggestion, he would hear me out and we would work from there.
Legitimately, I can't sing his praises high enough, and by extension, the company as well.
Exceptional Solutions at Rostron Finance!
I found Rostron Finance via a random google search and it had me intrigued as to why so many great customer experiences (especially with a person named Harrison). Funnily enough, my contact WAS Harrison and from my first contact with him it gave me insight as to why all the brilliant reviews. I can easily say that Harrison's service, attitude, knowledge, expertise and genuine time is first class. Although we didn't get the result we wanted, Harrison went above and beyond. It made the whole experience just that better.
Thank you Harrison, you are a gem!
