Overview
Changes to the 2012 VE Series II SS are minimal. Exterior treatment includes chrome-highlighted lower air dam and front grille surround, and continues with the revised headlamp shape, deck-lid lip and spoiler, plus 18-inch alloys from its predecessor. Inside the iQ system has improved Bluetooth compatibility/functionality and Razor/Onyx leather trims get silver stitching. The 6.0-litre AFM V8 (E85 compliant) develops 270kW/530Nm on petrol, and returns 12.3L/100km through the six-speed "Sports Auto". It garners a five-star ANCAP rating with safety features including ABS, stability/traction control, brake assist and six airbags.
