Mitsubishi has lost key models over the past decade but that hasn't hindered sales overall.
In 2022, Mitsubishi sold 76,991 vehicles in Australia.
Below you will see a visualisation of how those sales compare to a decade ago in 2012, when the company sold 58,868 vehicles in Australia.
Over the last decade the Japanese brand has grown substantially, largely on the back of strong sales for the Triton, Outlander and ASX.
Below is a graphical representation of the top manufacturers sales over the last 25 years (1997 to 2022), inclusive of passenger vehicles, SUVs, and both light and heavy commercial vehicles. This graph is interactive and you can pick to compare any number of manufacturers.
The Challenger has been replaced by the Pajero Sport while the Colt, Lancer and Pajero have disappeared. Interestingly, a decade ago Mitsubishi sold almost 100 EVs in 2012 and in 2022 it sold none, with the i-MiEV having been discontinued.
