flag Australians are shifting to budget Chinese and Korean cars, with affordable new models under $30,000 now leading the market.

flag In November 2025, Australians are increasingly choosing budget-friendly new cars from Chinese and Korean brands like MG, Chery, BYD, GWM, and LDV, which now lead the low-cost market, replacing traditional Japanese models. flag Several models remain under $30,000, including the Kia Picanto, MG 3, and MG 5, while newer entries like the Mahindra XUV 3XO, Chery Tiggo 4, and GWM Haval Jolion offer affordable SUV options. flag LDV dominates the people mover and van segments, and BYD leads in electric vehicles with the Dolphin starting at $29,990 before on-road costs. flag Plug-in hybrids, such as the Chery Tiggo 7 PHEV, are available drive-away for under $40,000. flag Pricing varies due to promotions and differing quoting methods—some include registration and delivery fees, others do not—making comparisons complex. flag Despite high interest rates and rising living costs, affordable new car options remain available across key segments.
