From time to time we like to travel back in time to Autonomous Today we want to take you You know what the Australian market was like in 2000 At the time. We expect this to have no relevance today and the evolution in user tastes is clearly appreciated, and a few brands are saying goodbye.
Although SUVs already had a certain weight in 2000, they were the big saloons that enjoyed a sensational popularity. The Holden Commodore, Ford Falcon Y Toyota Camry They already dominate this market, while other models like the Mitsubishi Magna were also in the top 10, something the brand saloon could not have imagined today.
Petrol dominated the fuels, hybrids were scarce and diesel was popular in commercial vehicles. It should not be forgotten that the most popular models in Australia for many years are associated with the six- and eight-cylinder modules. They don’t exactly cost a little. The trend has been changing over the years, but with no options other than the need.

Pick-up vehicles, also known as UTE, To maintain the already high demand already known in this country, the variations derived from conventional passenger cars are particularly surprising, a type not so well known on European soil, but it had “its moment” in South Africa and some Middle Eastern countries.
Like the United States, Small cars have never been liked in Australia. It is true that in big cities they sell something better, but in 2000 or now they are not enjoying much sales. Many of those sales that small cars take do so for their content price rather than being managed.
