how much commission does a car salesman make

Ah, the age-old question about the elusive car sales commission. Typically, in Australia, a car salesman might earn a commission ranging from 3% to 8% of the car's profit margin, not the sale price—so no, they’re not rolling in cash from every shiny new SUV. New car salesmen might see a commission bump on top of a base salary, often totaling around $50,000 to $100,000 AUD annually if they're decent at their job. Used car sales commissions can be a bit more lucrative percentage-wise but on lower-priced vehicles. Remember, the actual take-home can vary wildly based on dealership policy, sales volume, and how much they can charm your socks off.
