Welcome to the October issue of AutoTalk Australia

In the October edition of AutoTalk Australia we report on Mercedes-Benz opening its first Australian inner-city Studio at 39 Martin Place in Sydney, and Kia, BYD and Mazda cutting the cost of diagnostic access for independent repairers after ACCC investigations, in one case from $14,719.60 to $140.

Time to hand over the keys

After 20 years, Auto Media Group has sold AutoTalk Australia to a new publisher. A thank-you to readers, contributors and partners.
