1993 Australian Touring Car Championship

The 1993 Australian Touring Car Championship was a CAMS sanctioned Australian motor racing title for Group 3A Touring Cars. The championship, which was the 34th Australian Touring Car Championship, was contested over a nine-round series which began on 28 February 1993 at Amaroo Park and ended on 8 August at Oran Park Raceway. Promoted as the Shell Australian Touring Car Championship, it was won by Glenn Seton, driving a Ford EB Falcon, with teammate Alan Jones completing a one-two championship result for Glenn Seton Racing. It was Seton's first championship victory and the first major victory for the team he had started in 1989.

1993 marked the first year in which the championship was contested by the new Australian Group 3A Touring Car category which incorporated:

5.0 Litre Touring Cars (later to be known as V8 Supercars)
2.0 Litre Class II Touring Cars (later to be known as Super Touring Cars)
Normally aspirated, two wheel drive cars complying with the 1992 CAMS Group 3A regulations (commonly known as Group A cars)
