There has been an upsurge of cars made in China coming to Australia with one is five from there in 2025. Even a couple of years ago, that would have seemed far fetched. Now, no one would doubt that it will continue to grow.
The chart to the right shows sales of brands that are based in China. It includes passenger cars and light commercials.
Rk is where they rank compared to all brands, MS is market share and +/- shows increase over 12 months of 2024. There have been impressive gains plus a host of newbies.
BYD is in its third full year and already has 4.3% market penetration. MG and Haval are both in their 8th full year and while Haval did well in 2025, MG lost some ground. Xpeng is a close to exact as they don't report regularly.
New arrivals for the year have a 'n/a' in the +/- column to indicate that. 2026 will herald in yet more brands, which will be making it a crowded market place. There is such a thing as too much choice.
