Calais Sportwagon in Phantom It’s the Commodore, but not as you know it. Sure, it still has all the space. It still surrounds you with 5-star rated safety. And, of course, it still performs like a Holden should. But in the very clever Series II Commodore, that performance now comes with fuel economy better than some smaller 4-cylinder cars, plus the ability to run on emission-shrinking E85 Bio-ethanol, a blend of up to 85% ethanol and 15% petrol. With the futuristic new touch-screen Holden-iQ System onboard, it now also seamlessly integrates your digital life with your time behind the wheel. Seven Sedan models. Seven Sportwagon models. All powered by intelligent technology, and all complete with distinctive new style enhancements, inside and out. Holden Series II Commodore – the future has never looked better. Calais V-Series with Onyx leather Featuring the latest in touch-screen and Bluetooth® technology, the Commodore’s all new Holden-iQ System lets you play music from your choice of iPod®, MP3 player, USB device, CD and the vehicle’s own internal flash drive*. Access your mobile phone address book to make and take calls, hands-free without touching your phone. Operate the rear camera and satellite navigation system (including real time traffic updates), where fitted. And adjust your dual zone climate control. It’s a level of control and flexibility that turns cabin space, into personal space. And in the new Series II Commodore, it’s all at your fingertips. * Not available on Omega SS V-Series Redline in Redhot Go by the map, and that favourite place of yours can seem as far off as the horizon. Go by the new SS V-Series Redline Edition, and the journey will fly by. Such is the joy of owning and driving this top-of-the- range Commodore sports machine. The precision handling and phenomenal braking. The ease and efficiency with which its V8 takes on the road. More than ever, it gives you the power to go where you want, when you want, and never look back. Motorsport- inspired from nose to tail and complete with racing style cockpit, unique 19-inch forged alloy wheels, Brembo® performance brakes and FE3 performance suspension*, it’s a car that looks and feels as good as it sounds. * Sedan only SV6 in Alto Grey Exhilarating rear-wheel driven performance has always been the hallmark of Commodore’s sports lineup. Now it’s also got serious smarts. The 3.6 litre SIDI Direct Injection V6 delivers its 210kW to the SV6 with even more kilometres to the litre. The Gen IV V8 with Active Fuel Management (AFM) can run on Bio-ethanol, which means more power to the road than ever from the SS and SS V-Series. All of this, plus Holden’s legendary sports-tuned ride and handling, in vehicles that command attention every bit as much as they command the road. Calais V-Series Sportwagon in Phantom It’s one thing to be spacious. But it’s another altogether to be space efficient. That’s why the very clever Series II Commodore is both. Large in capacity and super practical, it’s packed with storage optimisation ideas that make it easy to load, access, re-organise and unload your belongings. Like the Sportwagon’s innovative forward-hinged tailgate, elevated rear cargo floor and flush-folding split rear seats. Room for everything – including the elbows and legs of five full- grown adults – that’s the new Series II Commodore.
