There'll only be a few changes to meet ADR but to do those costs auto manufacturers quite a lot of money.

Think of everything that adds to the cost of a car: training and support systems, marketing operations, generous dealership profits, shipping, etc... over a low volume all this has a substantial effect.

Low volume shouldn't really effect the price per unit... Australia is 3% of Toyota's market. That means 3% volume. Which in turn only requires 3% training and support systems, 3% marketing operations etc...
It all scales the same.
