Best-selling hybrid cars in Australia so far in 2024

We’re halfway through 2024 and there’s no sign of it. Toyota RAV4 will lose its title as Australia’s favourite hybrid.

A total of 23,935 RAV4 Hybrids were sold in the first half of this year, accounting for 94.2 percent of total RAV4 sales.

It’s no surprise, then, that Toyota recently decided to kill off the petrol-only RAV4 in Australia.

It is done the same way for all cars have hybrid vehicles in their product portfolio locally, and with some of the price points for hybrid powertrains in their product portfolio, it’s not hard to see why.

Just over 95 percent Camry sold in Australia in the first half of this year were hybrids, with 72.5 per cent Wreath and 85.8 percent Corolla Cross SUV
