Depends on the state. NSW for example is one that does vary depending on weight (based on weight ranges, not a full sliding scale) - there’s a ~$180 difference between my sedan and van due to the van’s tare weight placing it in the next category up. QLD on the other hand is one that doesn’t - they charge based on the cylinder count instead.
Comment on Australia’s roads are full of giant cars, and everyone pays the price. What can be done?

Rego is weight-based, but it’s utterly fucked.
My 900kg hatchback costs $149 more to register than a 2-tonne ute out in the country.
In the city, the rego difference is $1.10.
