Following a promise of "later this year" in June, Apple has officially rolled out its new and updated Apple Maps in Australia.
The new Apple Maps offers richer details in roads, parking lots, parks, buildings, airports, and more, and is part of Apple's push to rival Google Maps and other third-party map services. In Australia, customers will now have access to new Apple Maps. Apple last month rolled out the revamped Apple Maps to Italy, and Spain, and Portugal earlier in the summer.
Update: Not all users are seeing the new maps yet, so it appears Apple is still in the testing phase with them.

Apple's iPhone development roadmap runs several years into the future and the company is continually working with suppliers on several successive iPhone models simultaneously, which is why we often get rumored features months ahead of launch. The iPhone 17 series is no different, and we already have a good idea of what to expect from Apple's 2025 smartphone lineup.

No, it has not been updated. There are iOS 15 related minor cosmetic changes, particularly to elevation data at low zoom levels, but when you zoom in it’s the same data. Apple said the updated data was coming later this year - I suspect someone at Macrumors, who hasn’t been paying attention, assumed the generic map improvements are the ‘updated’ maps. They are not.
New map has been available since this morning on iOS 15.0 for me. Not on beta.
See the new detail in the city and green areas. Bondi finally has a yellow sandy beach. Uluru looks glorious. Driving view is updated and now has speed limits and extra details on street signage.
You are still welcome to whatever I'm smoking.
Edit: the poor Brisbane River is looking a bit more like the Yarra for some reason.
The only thing inaccurate about the Brisbane River is the shade of brown isn't dark enough :P
