Sportwagon (Wagon)
Overview
With SUVs virtually hijacking the family wagon market, a new approach was needed and the Holden Sportwagon is it. Based on the same wheelbase as regular Commodores, the new Holden is as much about style as it is about practicality. Despite losing load space, the Sportwagon helps make up with neat engineering such as the forward-hinged tailgate. The SS uses the 270kW/530Nm 6-litre V8, with the choice of six-speed manual or auto transmissions. The performance flagship gets 18-inch alloys, a body kit and hunkered-down sports suspension. Inside, there's SS-specific trim, grippy seats, a six-stack CD sound system and leather-rimmed steering wheel.
