Australia’s best-selling hybrids in 2025 revealed

Sales of hybrid vehicles in Australia increased 15.3 percent in 2025 compared to the previous year, reaching a total of 199,133 customers.

That was slightly higher growth than electric vehicles (up 13.1 percent to 103,269 units), but not as strong as the growth in plug-in hybrid sales (up 130.9 percent to 53,484 units).

Chery and KGM launched their first hybrid vehicles in 2025, and brands such as Hyundai and MG expanded their hybrid offerings.

This influx of new products helped boost hybrid sales as incumbents like Toyota and GWM either stagnated or declined.
