The Toyota Hilux snagged first sales place in September, counting 5047 deliveries to reach a YTD total of 40,813 units.
The Ford Ranger took a close second at 4867 registrations. Year to date, 42,050 Rangers have been sold.
In third place was the Tesla Model Y (3927), an astounding number for the mid-size electric SUV no-doubt bolstered by momentum acquired from the American EV brand’s Full Self Driving (Supervised) tech.
Tesla’s Model Y sales result shows a 162.2-percent increase over its posting last year, and in more recent terms, a 69.0 percent increase over its August 2025 sales figure.
Not only was the Toyota RAV4 beaten by an electric vehicle last month, the Ford Everest also beat the popular family SUV — though by a slimmer margin of just four units.
Sales of the Toyota RAV4 are sure to skyrocket when the next-generation model makes its debut next year.
September delivered another top-ten podium finish for the Chery Tiggo 4 small SUV, which secured 2048 deliveries. The result marks the third consecutive month in which the Tiggo 4 has placed on the podium.
Australia’s third most popular ute in September was the Isuzu D-Max, totalling 1989 sales for September to claim seventh place overall.
The Sealion 7 electric mid-size SUV secured 1887 sales this month, taking eighth place overall.
A whisker (two sales!) behind the BYD EV was the ninth place Toyota Prado.
A successful month too for the similarly sized (and equally cheap) Tiggo 4 rival, the Haval Jolion. The Jolion, securing 1881 deliveries in September, took 10th place. The Jolion was undoubtedly assisted by limited time September deals offered by manufacturer GWM.
