<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\nToday, Holden has taken the covers off the quickest, most powerful, most advanced Commodore ever built, the Commodore VFII.<\/p>\n
VFII introduces a new 6.2-litre LS3 engine to all V8 models, along with numerous upgrades including bi-modal exhaust, mechanical sound enhancer and all-new styling cues.<\/p>\n
Making its debut at a special, custom-built Commodore Gallery at the brand\u2019s headquarters in Port Melbourne, Holden today celebrated 37 years of Commodore by bringing together more than 30 Commodores, from one of the very first 1978 VB Commodores, to concepts, exports and motorsport heroes, illustrating the history and evolution of Australia\u2019s favourite car.<\/p>\n
The 2016 Commodore VFII is equipped with the powerful LS3 6.2-litre V8 engine and delivers 304kW of power and an exhilarating 570Nm of torque, ensuring that this is the quickest Commodore ever, posting a 0-100km\/h sprint time of 4.9 seconds.<\/p>\n
An engine of this caliber deserves a pure V8 soundtrack, so Holden engineers developed a distinct and fitting engine sound; the result of endless hours of local testing and courtesy of a newly introduced bi-modal exhaust with unique Holden designed \u201cBaillie Tip\u201d and mechanical sound enhancer.<\/p>\n
Building on the performance of the LS3 V8 engine, Holden\u2019s track focused, top of the range, SSV Redline sees the introduction of Brembo brakes on all four wheels, providing exceptional braking performance under all conditions and specifically designed to perform under closed circuit and track day conditions.<\/p>\n
Holden\u2019s Chairman and Managing Director, Mark Bernhard, described the Commodore VFII as the culmination of nearly four decades of design, engineering and manufacturing expertise, combined with unrivalled Australian experience.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe made a commitment to keep this iconic car exciting and relevant for Australian motorists, and that is exactly what we have done. This is the vehicle that our Commodore customers have been asking for,\u201d said Mr. Bernhard.<\/p>\n
\u201cCommodore VFII is powerful and refined, it will evoke emotion in its driver and exhibits all of the hallmarks Commodore has become renowned for over the years.<\/p>\n
\u201cCommodore represents 37-years of innovation, performance and technological advancements and has earned its place as Holden\u2019s longest-standing and most successful nameplate.<\/p>\n
\u201cHolden\u2019s design, engineering and manufacturing teams have produced the best Commodore ever – a vehicle that truly lives up to its reputation and one that the entire company is incredibly proud of.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the reason Holden is committed to ensuring we will continue to have engineering and design input into Commodore, and every other Holden vehicle in our range, for generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
In addition to being the most powerful Commodore ever, VFII also boasts the exceptional refinement and handling that Holden has become famous for. Tuned at Holden\u2019s Lang Lang proving ground and tested across Australia, VFII\u2019s revised FE3 rear sports suspension increases ride comfort whilst retaining its sharp handling.<\/p>\n
Holden\u2019s Lead Development Engineer, Amelinda Watt, said the extensive development work combined with Holden\u2019s Australian expertise ensured the new engine, sound and handling was unique and thrilling.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe new 6.2-litre LS3 engine and its distinctive sound character is the result of years of hard work, testing, developing and evaluating this vehicle and I\u2019m so proud of the end result,\u201d said Ms. Watt.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is absolutely the best car we have ever engineered and we are confident we are giving all our customers a compelling reason to put the latest Commodore in their driveway. We know that they will enjoy driving VFII as much as we enjoyed creating it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The introduction of functional hood vents and fascia ducts were developed by Holden engineers with support from Melbourne\u2019s Monash University wind tunnel, improving aerodynamics around the front corners of the vehicle.<\/p>\n
Hood vents, a stunning new front fascia as well as the introduction of clear lens tail lamps on sedan models and new LED tail lamps on all Sportwagon models gives VFII a more aggressive exterior to match the LS3 V8 under the bonnet.<\/p>\n
Commodore VFII goes on sale in October with demand for the unbridled V8 variant expected to be extremely strong. Customers wishing to register their interests can do so at their local Holden dealer or via the Holden<\/a> website.<\/p>\n New Features to Commodore VFII Range<\/strong><\/p>\n SV6<\/strong><\/p>\n SS<\/strong><\/p>\n SSV<\/strong><\/p>\n SSV Redline<\/strong><\/p>\n Calais<\/strong><\/p>\n Calais V<\/strong><\/p>\n Caprice V<\/strong><\/p>\n Colour Range<\/strong><\/p>\n *premium paint – $550 option (except on Caprice V \u2013 no charge)<\/em><\/p>\n Pricing<\/strong><\/p>\n Recommended retail price^ of the Commodore VFII range is as follows:<\/p>\n Commodore VFII Sedan<\/strong><\/p>\n Commodore VFII Sportwagon<\/strong><\/p>\n VFII Ute<\/strong><\/p>\n Caprice Sedan <\/strong><\/p>\n Optional performance brakes and 20 inch wheels <\/strong><\/p>\n Holden\u2019s Lifetime Capped Price Servicing, the largest of its kind in Australia, will also available on the Commodore VFII range rewarding customers with complete peace of mind.<\/p>\n ^ Recommended retail price excluding dealer delivery, on roads costs and government charges<\/p>\n Holden today took the covers off the final Australian made Commodore. The nameplate goes back to 1978 and, with Holden due to cease local manufacturing in 2017, will see the name fall a year short of forty years in the Australian motoring landscape.
