Both the car-buying public and manufacturers are finding it difficult to connect with one another at the moment.
While we all still need each other, WhichCar has taken the initiative to set up this page here to share some of the deals that manufacturers are running.
This page will be continually updated in an effort to keep on top of current deals and promotions car makers are offering in Australia.
This page was updated Thursday 5 November 2020.
The prices shown in this story have been researched via manufacturer websites and were correct at the time of publication. This story offers no guarantee of price or ability to supply at an indicated price.
Alfa Romeo
Giulia
Alfa Romeo's eye-catching Giulia isn't selling as well as the company hopes, so it's got a few specials on to hurry things along. The (MY19) Giulia Veloce is now $72,900 driveaway, down from $72,900 (before on-road costs).
Stelvio
Demo versions of the diesel version of Alfa Romeo's five-seat, five-door SUV is now priced from $49,900 driveaway. Granted, these models might be from a 2018 or 2019 model year but that's a cracking deal nonetheless. The cool Veloce pack which brings sporty wheels and blackened trim pieces is $2000 extra.
Demo versions of the Stelvio Ti are now from $60,900 driveaway, down from $78,900 (before on-road costs)
Audi
Audi has created an online sales portal in which you can browse its current stock (at driveaway prices) nationwide.
Otherwise, nationwide, Audi is running a deal on its SUV models which includes free on-road costs (a significant saving already), a five-year warranty and free servicing for up to five years or 75,000kms - whichever comes first. Search for stock on Audi's website.
BMW
X5
BMW is offering the X5 xDrive30d M Sport at $119,900 driveaway, instead of roughly $130,000 after on-road costs. Use that extra $10k+ to add in a few extra option packages, we reckon.
1 Series
The entry-point to the 1 Series range is on sale now for $49,900 driveaway, including M sport package as standard.
X1
X1 sDrive18i is discounted to the same $49,900 price, with further incentives like guaranteed value and scheduled servicing available if purchased on finance.
3 Series
The entry-point to the much-loved 3 Series range, the 320i, is on sale for $72,900 driveaway. That’s a saving of at least a few thousand dollars, depending on your state. With a swathe of equipment as standard and a strong 2.0-litre engine why spend more?
X3
You can go SUV for a similar price as above, with the X3 sDrive20i currently discounted to $69,900 driveaway. Incentives are offered if purchased on finance.
Fiat
Abarth 595
In addition to a discounted driveaway price of $28,450 (ABARTH 595) and $33,450 (ABARTH 595 COMPETIZIONE), FCA Australia is offering a $500 bonus to existing customers.
500X

Hyundai
Venue
Hyundai’s smallest SUV packs a convincing package and is now on sale in various guises; Venue Go (from $22,690), Venue Active (from $24,700) and Venue Elite (from $29,240). All prices are driveaway, with manual gearbox cars being cheaper.
Kona
A step up in terms of size and spec, the Kona is now $26,490 driveaway for the automatic Go while bonus discounts of $750 are available for the rest of the range.
Tucson
Current-gen mid-size SUV hero is winding down while its replacement is readying up, which is good news for buyers as prices are low across the range. Tucson Active starts from $29,990 driveaway and Tucson Active X starts from $32,990 driveaway.
Santa Fe
Spend $42,990 and you could be driving away in a 2WD petrol Santa Fe Active. Step up to the all-wheel drive version for $46,990 driveaway or get a $2500 bonus on Active X specification.

Prices have remained low on this car for some time; find out how much stock they have and then bargain hard from there because its replacement is on sale now.
Isuzu
D-MAX
The D-Max’s hard-earned reputation is now more affordable, with some crew-cab and single-cab chassis models on offer. Look for discounts on the brand-new D-Max, which is already receiving driveaway offers.
A D-Max 4x4 X-Terrain auto range-hero is now $58,990 driveaway and a 4x2 single cab SX auto is now $29,990 driveaway. Fewer offers on D-Max and MU-X this month than in months past.

From the $40,990 driveaway MU-X 4X2 LS-M automatic to the $54,990 MU-X 4X4 LS-T auto, a number of discounted prices are available across the range.
