DMUs were first introduced to Australia in the late mid-20th century for use on quiet branch lines that could not justify a locomotive hauled service. Today, DMUs are widely used throughout Australia's southern states:

* [[Adelaide Metro]] use [[3000 class railcar|3000 class DMUs]] on their suburban network.
* [[NSW TrainLink]] use [[New South Wales Xplorer|Xplorer DMUs]] on services from [[Central railway station, Sydney|Sydney]] to [[Canberra railway station|Canberra]] ([[Australian Capital Territory|ACT]]), [[Griffith railway station|Griffith]], [[Broken Hill railway station|Broken Hill]], [[Armidale railway station|Armidale]] and [[Moree railway station|Moree]]. [[New South Wales Endeavour railcar|Endeavour DMUs]] are used on services to [[Bathurst railway station, New South Wales|Bathurst]], [[Moss Vale railway station|Moss Vale]] and [[Goulburn railway station|Goulburn]] on the [[Main Southern railway line|Southern Highlands Line]], [[Kiama railway station|Kiama]] to [[Bomaderry railway station|Bomaderry]] and on the [[Hunter railway line|Hunter Line]]. [[New South Wales Hunter railcar|Hunter railcar DMUs]] are also used on the [[Hunter railway line|Hunter Line]].
* Victoria's [[V/Line]] uses [[V/Line Sprinter|Sprinter]] and [[V/Line VLocity|V/Locity]] DMUs on all medium distance services.
* Western Australia's [[Transwa]] operates the ''[[The Prospector (train)|Prospector]], [[AvonLink]]'' and ''[[Australind (train)|Australind]]'' on medium and long distance country services.

In Queensland, heritage DMUs are used on the ''[[Savannahlander]]'' and ''[[Gulflander]]'' tourist trains.
