Europe has plenty of pickups. It's just that they are usually configured with Van cockpits and flatbeds with removable sides.
Mostly get used for commercial work. Not so much as grocery getters.
I don't see them much more capable than a cutaway E450 although they do have more engine variations. Europe is much more constrained by road width and regulations which makes these more popular. I'm sure more pickups would be sold in Australia if the costs were not so high for such a low volume market so far away. When you're on a sparsely populated island, costs are always higher and selection poorer.
This is when US Pickups were sold from Ford Dealerships in Australia. A 1998 by the looks of it F150, with a 351 cu in engine, I took this photo in Dec 2017
