Don't get me wrong. I'd love to see Holden have a compact SUV in the range. The best sellers are doing around 700 a month, which would be great volume to add.
I was just pointing out that with Hilux doing around 3000 - 4000 sales a month, Colorado is being outsold by 2 or 3 to 1. It would be great to have a really strong competitor to steal some of that volume Holden's way.
I don't think anyone is going to cut Toyota's market dominance without tackling their commercial sales stranglehold.
