    Yes?

    I don’t know how many of them are actually built in Australia, mind, in the same way that many American cars aren’t built here (or are vaguely assembled from parts built elsewhere)

      Most of them build track cars and the like. There is certainly no mainstream car manufacturers left.

        and now I wonder what Mad Max would look like with EVs? Would they fight over batteries?
