Holden Commodore VE Series II Revealed

Holden has today revealed the 2011 VE Commodore Series II, the first major update to the fourth-generation VE Commodore since its launch in 2006.

The VE Series II comes with updated styling, a revised interior with an all-new touch-screen display system and, under the bonnet, a two-percent improvement in fuel economy for Holden's 3.0 litre SIDI V6.

Perhaps most importantly, VE Series II Commodore models powered by the 3.0 litre SIDI V6 and the Gen IV 6.0 litre V8 benefit from 'flex fuel' compatibility, allowing motorists to fill up with either regular petrol or E85 bio-ethanol fuel.

Holden Chairman and Managing Director Mike Devereux said that the Series II VE Commodore reflects Holden’s focus on ongoing improvements for the top-selling model.

“Our customers have been telling us they want to see our models refreshed with greater functionality from Omega to Caprice," Devereux said.

“We have listened and responded in a way that continues to position Commodore as the smart choice for Australian motorists.”
