Holden has today (December 12, 2017) provided pricing details and nope, they&#8217;re nowhere near as bad as some naysayers touted, nor are the spec levels anything to be ashamed of.

That will have the 2.0-L turbo four and even better is the drive-away pricing that will be available. $35990 drive-away is what will be presented and that&#8217;s just $65 shy of $4000 cheaper.<\/p>\n<p>Holden will keep the Calais and Calais V names, and these will get the V6, all wheel drive, combination as standard, along with heating AND cooling for the front seats, a massage function, wireless phone charging and leather wrapped tiller as standard.<a href=\"https:\/\/awheelthing.wordpress.com\/2017\/12\/12\/2018-holden-commodore-pricing-released-and-its-good\/image164711_a\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6863\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6863\" src=\"https:\/\/awheelthing.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/12\/image164711_a.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" \/><\/a>Although the evocative SS badging has been rested, with hints of a potential return, the sporty side for Commodore goes Euro, by getting the VXR badging.
