text: # Rally de Australia de 2018
  
  El Rally de Australia de 2018, oficialmente 27. Kennards Hire Rally Australia fue la 27º edición y la decimotercera y última ronda de la temporada 2018 del Campeonato Mundial de Rally. Se celebró del 15 al 18 de noviembre y contó con un itinerario de 24 tramos sobre tierra que sumaban un total de 316,30 km. Será también la última cita de los campeonatos WRC 2 y WRC 3, el primero con el título ya decidido y el segundo con solo dos inscritos.
  Sébastien Ogier (Ford) y Thierry Neuville (HYundai) llegaron a Australia con una diferencia de solo tres puntos en la clasificación general del campeonato. Ambos se jugaron el título de pilotos, mientras que Ott Tänak tercero del certamen, también contaba con posibilidades pero sus opciones eran más remotas.
