I’d be surprised if they are selling in excess of 2160 cars a month.

I think you’d be more accurate comparing them to Chinese brands than South Korean IMO.
Hyundai’s and Kia’s haven’t “driven like 10 year old tin cans off the showroom floor” for many years now.

That may be the case. Until they publish the figures it is hard to say.

This article from October gives some insight.

Depending on how many of the Model 3s shipped to Australia were registered in September via Tesla’s small dealership operation, the mid-sized sedan might have been one of the top-10 selling vehicles in the land for the month – the first time an electric vehicle would have ever achieved that success.



In August, only five vehicles achieved more than 2000 sales for the month.



We are unlikely to know Model 3 sales data for certain, but the volume is clearly in mass-manufacturer territory for the first time, at least in the launch phase.



According to a recent Australian National Transport Commission EV report, Tesla is estimated to have delivered 1300 vehicles in Australia 2017 and about 1005 in 2018.



By that count, Tesla will deliver more Model 3s in September than it did of its other two models in the previous two years combined.

And after today's announcement will never again be in the top 10.

The graphical statistics for November are now uploaded in the Tech Portal.

Please note that this may be the last time these are prepared as our current source for the raw VFACTs data will not be publishing them or the Ford Media releases from December 31st this year so unless we can find an alternate source for that data then neither will be available here.

It's sad that after 15 years of presenting and analysing the sales data we will not be able to do so any longer but that's the changing landscape we live in.

It's a good point you make. Combined, the two models don't add up to a lot of volume but it's still ~10,000 sales that Holden won't have and this year they are only going to sell ~40,000 vehicles in total. Based on 2018 numbers, that will leave them battling for 12th place in 2020 with Mercedes-Benz and almost 10,000 units behind 11th place.

And that’s if Holden doesn’t suffer any more sales losses
