This marks a 2 per cent increase from the previous year. A major contributor to this growth was the rising popularity of utility vehicles, which accounted for 65 per cent of total passenger vehicle sales.

This is up from around 60 per cent in the previous financial year. The report said the increase came from strong demand for new models, better features, and attractive consumer offers.
