They developed a local version, the Valiant AP5, with distinctive styling giving the car an identity separate from the U.S. and Plymouth Dodge variants in 1963. The reason for the development of a different style was the concern that the local manufacturer could not afford to make substantial lifestyle changes as rapidly as in the U.S. Thus, a modified appearance would minimize the risk of accusations that Australia was selling last-year's-model.

In addition, with the acquisition of the British Rootes U.S. Chrysler Group, Chrysler Australia took over Rootes Australia, as well as the operation of its Port Melbourne plant in 1966. Until 1973 the main Rootes model sold in Australia was the Hillman Hunter and than this car has become a steady seller for Chrysler.
