With the recent release of the Holden VZ Commodore, the following is the
recommended
retail price of the Ute range. Holden is offering three body types in the range,
a two door ute tub, two door one tonne cab chassis, and a four door Crewman ute
bodied dual cab. All the V6 models are equipped with the 175kw Alloytec engine
and the V8's are powered by the updated GenIII V8. At present the 190kw V6
Aloytec engine is not available in the ute range, but we're expecting to see it
in the Series II utes. All manual models are equipped with the six speed
gearbox, and the automatics have an upgraded four speed.
Please Note: All
prices exclude on road costs.

Utes Take Over Federation Square

Brock gets V8 Rodeo
 | Peter Brock will be driving an all new V8 powered Holden Rodeo in the decidedly competitive Australian Safari from September 12th to 20th, in outback New South Wales.

Deni Ute Muster '04
It?s getting closer to that time of year again, when
people start getting excited about heading to Deniliquin to go to the Ute
Muster. 2004 plans to be a bigger year again, with a great music line up on the
main stage and heaps of other activities to keep everyone entertained for the
weekend.
Holden Goes Hybrid
The new Alloytec V6 Engine will be part of the new Petrol / Electric Hybrid engine that could be on sale in Australia within five years, confirmed Holden boss Denny Mooney. He also revealed that there could be a V8 hybrid on the cards also; it would be based on the LS2 6.0 litre, which has recently been released in the C6 Corvette in the US.
V6 Alloytec - Thirstier than first thought
Holden has revealed its all new Alloytec V6 engine that will be used to
power the VZ Commodore which is due to be released later this year is dubious
about the fuel efficiency compared to the older Buick based 3.8 litre cast iron
block V6 that has been in Commodores since 1988.
