Australian Autos

Australian Autos posts cover the now-closed local manufacturing of Holden, Ford Australia and Toyota, plus the imported market that replaced it. Articles look at the long Holden Commodore line, the Ford Falcon, the FPV and HSV performance branches, the closure of the Adelaide and Geelong plants between 2016 and 2017, the rise of dual-cab utes like the Ranger and HiLux that now top sales charts and the slow Australian shift to electric and hybrid vehicles. There are also notes on the unique Australian Design Rule standards and on the second-hand market for a Falcon GT.
