Citroën ceased operations in Australia on November 9, 2026, following poor sales performance.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The AADA warns that the rapid influx of new car brands is creating risks for the Australian market, including rapid vehicle depreciation, longer repair times, and supply lags. Dealers are facing intense competition and rising business costs due to the sheer number of manufacturers operating in the country.
