Vauxhall has launched what is claimed to be the most powerful wagon in the company's 110 year history.

It combines a 0-100 km/h time of 4.9 seconds with up to 2000 litres of luggage capacity. Other features include launch control, EDI data logging and 20" wheels.

agreed.

BRING IT HERE GM!!! C'mon!!

But to be honest the soft sales of the V-wagon are a perfect reason why its NOT ever coming here. But I'd sure buy one if given the chance. Oh well.

[Jeff92se]

Just send me the wheels. Thanks!

 

[gmpontiacguy]

this looks like HSV Series 2 wagon not VF Commodore

 

[pic18]

They must need to use up old Holden parts. We're all excited about VF, and that's the outgoing body style.

agreed.

Ahhh, but this could have been close to $20K (or more) less than a CTS-V wagon!

Wagons don't have the following they once did here in the states though I do tend to see a few CTS Wagons here.

 

[Troutman]

True... it did steal some sales from SUVs in Australia in its heyday. It's marketed as a 'Sportswagon' and uses the regular wheelbase for sedan-like handling (older models used the lenghtened Caprice platform). But not likely to be worthwhile for the US at this stage.

 

[Blakeg8gt]

I want!!!! :/

 

[Troutman]

I thought this was worth sharing, even if the Tourer is a little out of its league against an Audi RS4. The new model will address some of the shortcomings.

Wagons aren't my cup of tea so I would never buy it. Cool car though!

From what I've read about the VF, quite a few of the shortcomings of the VE will be addressed in the new version. Too bad Holden never moved these into a AWD drive train, that, would have been a true Audi killer!:wink2:

The wagon would be a great family travel vehicle. Has the power to have fun and some extra cargo room. SUVs are so overrated...
