Australians bought 2.2 percent more vehicles in 2013 compared to 2012, totaling a record of 1,136,277 units sold, with foreign ones being the most popular.
And according to reports from the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI), Toyota shares 18.9 percent of the over one million vehicles sold in 2013. Second spot was achieved by Holden with 9.9%, while third and fourth were occupied by Mazda with 9.1 and Hyundai with 8.5 percent.

The most popular car sold in Aussie Land was the Toyota Corolla, with 43,498 units sold, representing a 12 percent improvement over from 2012. And while the second most wanted car was the Mazda3, the Toyota Hilux came close in third. Despite being very popular in the US, the Toyota Camry came on sixth place in Australia.

The cheapest Toyota Corolla in Australia (which is known as an Auris elsewhere) is the Ascent grade at AU$19,990. It comes with a 1.8-liter gasoline engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox. Features include air conditioning, power windows, cruise control, tilt-telescopic steering wheel, electric mirrors and a six-speaker audio system with steering wheel mounted controls.
