top car brands in australia 2023

Short version: 2023 was Toyota’s playground, again, with Mazda holding second and Ford muscling into third on the back of the Ranger’s tradie charm.

Chasing hard were Kia and Hyundai, while Mitsubishi, MG, Subaru, Isuzu UTE and Volkswagen filled out the usual top‑ten bustle.

Utes and SUVs did the heavy lifting, because Aussies still love a tall ride and a tow bar more than kale smoothies.

EVs grew quickly from a small base, but the best‑sellers were still the trusty dual‑cabs and family crossovers.
