The first Australian-designed car was built in 1948, but locally designed station wagons did not appear until nine years later when the 1957 [[Holden FE]] was introduced. Holden's main competitor, the [[Ford Falcon (XK)]] introduced wagon models in 1960.

Ford and Holden produced wagon models based on each generation of their large sedans until 2010. Other wagons produced in Australia include the smaller [[Toyota Camry]] and [[Mitsubishi Magna]]. The Ford and Holden wagons were usually built on a longer [[wheelbase]] than their sedan counterparts until the introduction of the [[Holden Commodore (VE)]], which switched to sharing the sedan's wheelbase.

Ford ceased production of wagons in Australia when the [[Ford Falcon (BF)]] ended production in 2010, primarily due to the declining station wagon and large car market, but also following the 2004 introduction and sales success of the [[Ford Territory (Australia)|Ford Territory]] SUV.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Hagon |first1=Toby |title=Ford Falcon wagon dead |url= https://www.drive.com.au/news/ford-falcon-wagon-dead-20100324-qwce/ |work=Drive |location=Australia |language=en-AU |date=2 October 2016 |access-date=31 July 2022}}</ref> Production of wagons in Australia ceased in 2017 when the [[Holden Commodore (VF)]] ended production.
