Holden has become the first car manufacturer to lend its official support to Australia’s new SuperUtes racing category, unveiling how its race-prepped Colorado is expected to look.

Running as a support class to the Supercars Championship, the new SuperUtes class will take the place of the outgoing V8 Utes class following the end of production of the locally-built Commodore and Falcon utes.

With six manufacturers given the green-light to race in the new category, Holden is the first to give an official backing to throw its support behind the new SuperUtes racing category.

Although the real-deal is still under wraps for the time being, this rendering penned by GM Design Australia shows how the final product is expected to look.

The rules of the 2018 SuperUtes series will see production-based, rear-wheel-drive, turbo-diesel dual-cab utes racing against each other with control-components including SupaShock suspension, Brembo brakes, a control gearbox and rear differential along with a control wheel and tyre package.
