2015 Holden Commodore unveiled
www.caradvice.com.au
The 2015 Holden Commodore has been unveiled with a range of updates including new colours, paddleshifters and a range of other minor improvements.
Since its launch in May 2013, the Holden VF Commodore has gone on the dominate the shrinking large car segment, currently commanding an impressive 72 per cent market share ahead of the Ford Falcon and Toyota Aurion.
So far in 2014, Commodore sales are up 26.5 percent compared with the same period last year (Jan-Sep). The 2015 Commodore updates are set to ensure the dominance remains strong ahead of the updated Ford Falcon launch later this year.
Given the VF Commodore has only been around for 17 months, the changes to the MY15 are mostly incremental improvements with no changes to the drivetrain.
From the outside the sporty versions (SV6, SS, SS V and SS V Redline sedans only) gain an update to the rear end, with a new gloss black rear valance. SS V models also gain new 19-inch split-rim alloy wheels.
Two new bright new colours have also been introduced with “Jungle Green” for sports models and “Some Like It Hot” red (available across the range) to become the new hero hues.
Inside, the SS V redline gains a new standard jet black finish with optional titanium highlights while automatic models gain paddle-shifters. The reverse-view camera has been updated with grid lines.
The rest of the range gain a recalibrated and retuned Electronic Power Steering (EPS) system, with Holden claiming a better on-centre steering feel and precision.
