According to data released today by the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries and the Electric Vehicle Council (EVC), cars manufactured in China accounted for over 46,600 sales for the first two months of 2026, eclipsing the 44,614 Japanese-built cars reported as sold.Japan has dominated the Australian new car sales landscape for decades, the number one source of new cars for Australians since 1998. But China’s emergence as an auto manufacturing superpower has relegated Japan to second place on the sales chart. The strong result came off February sales data where cars built in China notched up around 25,700 sales last month, over 4000 more than Japan’s tally of 21,671.All but one Tesla variant – the Model Y Performance – are made in China while all Australian-delivered Polestar models are manufactured in China.Propelling China’s rise to the top are brands like BYD which has seen a 161 per cent increase in sales compared with the same period last year. Chery too is experiencing massive growth, up 99 per cent over the same time.Japan’s sales meanwhile have been hard hit by declining sales for Nissan (down 44.7 per cent), Suzuki (down 32.5 per cent) and Toyota (down 25.1 per cent).

>>28869144Cope, chud. The Chinese are Elite Human Capital.
>>28869144It isn't just Chinese people buying them!
The cars are fine for souless transportation, the propergander spouted by Toyota and Mazda that only the Japanese can make a decent car is ridiculous. They're all made in factories by robots, as if such a huge country can't figure out what other countries did in the 90's.The prices are a bit misleading, for example the styling of the Chinese cars will try and mimick a $60k Mazda but if you put them near each other you will realize the Chinese car is more similar in size to the cheaper lower end Mazda so they are not that cheap in the end.
>>28870155no they are definitely cheaper than japanese cars in part cuz the chinese government finances the companies to bolster China's rep abroad
>>28869542Mass immigration has cratered the earning potential of the local pop, so it's still the chinks (and jeets) causing the increase in sales of chinkmobiles
>>28869144Its not chinks buying them.Indians are the only ones who buy mahindra.But chinese cars are bought by poorfags of all races.
>>28869143But china doesn't make cars.
