While the sales figures have shown the decline of large and medium cars, the tiny list that follows reinforces the fact that buyers are no longer wedded to the big "Aussie" family car.
Holden Commodore
As a last hoorah before the Holden Commodore (as we know it) goes out of production, an upgrade of the iconic sedan, wagon, and utility will arrive in March. The refresh signals the end of an era before the launch of the all-new Commodore-badged Opel Insignia hatch and wagon in early 2018.
Skoda Octavia
A revised version of the Skoda Octavia will also land in July, with refreshed versions of the Octavia RS and Scout models to both arrive in August.
Skoda Superb Sportline
Next month, a Sportline version of the car maker's Superb large car will go on sale. The new Sportline is based on the flagship 206TSI and adds an exterior bodykit, highlights, unique alloys and a boot lip spoiler on the liftback.
Volkswagen Arteon
The all-new Arteon four-door fastback (that replaces the Passat CC) will arrive in October, after its official debut in March at the Geneva motor show. Volkswagen has only released a design sketch of the new model, however the German car maker has stated the car will sport a "wholly new interpretation of the front section''.
Volkswagen Passat Alltrack Wolfsburg
The Passat Alltrack Wolfsburg edition arrives late in February. Extra features on the Wolfsburg edition include black Nappa leather upholstery, hands free tailgate, unique wheels and different LED headlights.
