Local regulations
Key compliance considerations
- Australian Consumer Law (ACL) governs warranties, misleading conduct, and remedies.
- National Consumer Credit Protection Act (NCCP) for finance; dealers must comply.
- State-based dealer licensing (e.g., VACC in Victoria, MTA in NSW).
- Privacy Act applies to customer data; Australian Privacy Principles.
Dealer benchmarks
Override and recovery data
Australian dealers face similar margin pressure. Override rates align with US independents (5–6%) where structured capture is absent. Recovery rates of 15–20% within a quarter are typical.
