Vehicle Safety Ratings Estimated from Police Reported Crash Data: 2006 Update
VEHICLE SAFETY RATINGS ESTIMATED FROM POLICE REPORTED CRASH DATA: 2006 UPDATE AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND CRASHES DURING 1987-2004 by Stuart Newstead Linda Watson & Max Cameron Report No. 248 June 2006 Project Sponsored By ii MONASH UNIVERSITY ACCIDENT RESEARCH CENTRE MONASH UNIVERSITY ACCIDENT RESEARCH CENTRE REPORT DOCUMENTATION PAGE Report No. Report Date ISBN Pages 248 June 2006 0 7326 2318 9 90 + Appendices Title and sub-title: VEHICLE SAFETY RATINGS ESTIMATED FROM POLICE REPORTED CRASH DATA: 2006 UPDATE AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND CRASHES DURING 1987-2004 Author(s) Type of Report & Period Covered Newstead, S.V., Cameron, M.H. and Watson, L.M. Summary Report, 1982-2004 Sponsoring Organisations - This project was funded as contract research by the following organisations: Road Traffic Authority of NSW, Royal Automobile Club of Victoria Ltd, NRMA Ltd, VicRoads, Royal Automobile Club of Western Australia Ltd, Transport Accident Commission and Land Transport New Zealand, the Road Safety Council of Western Australia, the New Zealand Automobile Association and by a grant from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau Abstract: Crashworthiness ratings measure the relative safety of vehicles in preventing severe injury to their own drivers in crashes whilst aggressivity ratings measure the serious injury risk vehicles pose to drivers of other vehicles and unprotected road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists. Updated crashworthiness ratings and aggressivity ratings for 1982- 2004 model vehicles were estimated based on data on crashes in Victoria and New South Wales during 1987-2004 and in Queensland, Western Australia and New Zealand during 1991-2004. Both crashworthiness and aggressivity were measured by a combination of injury severity (the risk of death or serious injury given an injury was sustained) and injury risk (the risk of injury given crash involvement). -

IM-GROUP.COM.AU PRODUCT news RANGE Holden Rodeo / Isuzu D Max EGR Cooler GOSS’ latest release of re-engineered and improved EGR Coolers suits the Holden Colorado & Isuzu D-Max 4JJ1 engines. Part number: EC104 The EGR Cooler is a metal device that employs thin passages and fins/tubes to cool the exhaust gases. They function in much the same way as a radiator functions, by using the cool air passing through the fins to cool the exhaust gases as they flow through the cooler. If an EGR cooler fails, it can cause problems with the functionality of the EGR system. This can lead to performance issues and can also cause serious engine damage if the issue is not dealt with. -

Official Name: Holden Ltd Owned By: General Motors Current Situation
Official name: Holden LtdThe 2005 Holden Efijy (pronounced effigy) concept car Owned by: General Motors Current situation: Holden builds no vehicles; it’s just a brand. All of its models are made by overseas com- panies owned by, or associated with, General Motors. Holden badges are glued to these cars as they leave their factories. Holden lost money for most of the last decade, but has bounced back since it stopped building cars in Aus- tralia. Chances of survival: uncertain. Holden’s owner – General Motors – lost $3.9 billion in 2017 after the sale of its loss-making European opera- tions. GM’s operations in USA and China are currently profitable, but vulnerable to economic downturn. The Holden brand will continue in Australasia as long as there is consumer demand for it, but Holden sales have been dropping for years. Decades of lousy mod- els and lousy customer service may ultimately con- demn Holden as a brand • 1 All content © The Dog & Lemon Guide 2018 • All rights reserved. A brief history of Holden de AMES ALEXANDER HOLDEN, an Englishman from a long Jline of leather workers, went into partnership with Henry Frost in 1885. The Holden & Frost partnership boomed with the start of the Boer War, supplying leather equipment to the colonial soldiers. With the advent of the motorcar the Holden & Frost catalogue grew to include motoring accessories. From there, it was an easy ad- aptation to begin custom building car bodies; they knew coachwork well and had a massive industrial complex at their disposal. By 1923, demand exceeded supply. -

MY10 VE and WM PRODUCT INFORMATION 3.0L and 3.6L SIDI
September 2009 MY10 VE and WM PRODUCT INFORMATION 3.0L and 3.6L SIDI V6 Engines Overview The Global V6 engine family was launched by General Motors in 2003 to fulfil its strategy to build a new generation of engines for flexible worldwide application in premium and high- performance vehicles. Today GM Powertrain’s all-alloy 60-degree double overhead cam (DOHC) Global V6 engines power a variety of vehicles around the world. GM Holden is a producer as well as a user of Global V6 engines. In 2003 its newly commissioned $400 million Port Melbourne V6 engine plant began building Global V6 engines for export. In August 2004 Alloytec Global V6 engines were introduced to the Australian market with the Holden VZ Commodore and WL Caprice and Statesman model ranges. The latest evolution of the Global V6 is the Spark Ignition Direct Injection SIDI V6; which offers advanced direct combustion chamber fuel injection. Like its predecessor, the SIDI V6 applies highly developed engine technologies such as state-of- the-art casting processes, full four-cam phasing, ultra-fast data processing and torque-based engine management. GM Holden engineers jointly assisted in the architectural development of the SIDI V6 with colleagues from GM technical centres in North America and Germany. The 3.0L and 3.6L SIDI V6 engines introduced with the MY10 Holden Commodore, Berlina, Calais, Sportwagon, Ute, Statesman and Caprice model ranges combine with smooth-shifting six-speed automatic transmission and dual exhaust specified as standard*. They deliver a balance of improved operating refinement with first-rate noise and vibration control, good specific output, high torque over a broad rpm band, fuel economy and low emissions, exclusive durability-enhancing features and very low maintenance. -

National Media Launch MY17 Holden Astra November 2017 PRODUCT
National Media Launch MY17 Holden Astra November 2017 PRODUCT INFORMATION OVERVIEW Holden confirmed it was bringing the all-new Astra to Australia in September 2015. Following the announcement, Astra has collected a variety of awards in Europe and UK, including 2016 European Car of the Year and the Golden Steering Wheel. Astra has received the plaudits for its blend of premium European styling, state-of-the-art technology and exceptional driving performance, redefining what a mainstream small car is and taking the fight to luxury brands. Whilst the Astra name is long serving in Australia, the incoming Astra is all-new. Developed from a clean-sheet design under the watchful eye of Opel/Vauxhall’s Vice President – Design, Mark Adams, Astra exhibits the same sleek, ‘Sculptural Artistry meets German Precision’ design philosophy first introduced on the stunning Monza concept in 2013. Focused on blending style and efficiency, Astra is built off a new vehicle architecture that facilitates up to 140kg weight reduction whilst allowing the introduction of distinct styling cues. A rear floating roof design complemented by a sports front fascia and grille that extends seamlessly into the front LED headlamp design, give Astra a strong and unmistakable road presence. Holden engineering has been involved in the Astra program since its conception and identified many efficiencies and similarities in what Holden and Opel customers expect from, and use, their vehicles. Resultantly, Holden engineers were present for validations of the car and subsequently decided upon developing a unique Australian chassis tune to ensure Astra performs on Australian roads, as a Holden should. -
