The Holden VT Commodore, released in 1997, was the tenth model of the Holden Commodore, a full-size car built by Holden, the Australian subsidiary of General Motors. For the VT, Holden looked again to Opel in Germany for a donor platform. The proposal was to take the Opel Omega B and broaden the vehicle’s width and mechanical setup for local conditions.

dbpprop:abstract
  • The Holden VT Commodore, released in 1997, was the tenth model of the Holden Commodore, a full-size car built by Holden, the Australian subsidiary of General Motors. For the VT, Holden looked again to Opel in Germany for a donor platform. The proposal was to take the Opel Omega B and broaden the vehicle’s width and mechanical setup for local conditions. In the early days, Holden considered adopting the Omega as is, save for the engines and transmissions, and even investigated reskinning the existing second generation (VN—VS) architecture. Later on, the VT bodywork spawned a new generation of Statesman and Caprice limousines. Holden even went as far as resurrecting the iconic Monaro coupé from the 1960s and 1970s. The revived Monaro attracted wide attention after being shown as a concept car at Australian auto shows, and it drew a large waiting list after production began. The Monaro was released to the Australian market in 2001 and ceased production in 2005. The VT Commodore was awarded, for the fourth time, the Wheels Car of the Year for 1997. It found ready acceptance in the market as many buyers steered away from the Ford AU Falcon, becoming the best selling Commodore to date and cementing its place as number one in Australian sales.
  • Der Holden VT wurde in den Jahren 1997 bis 2000 von der australischen GM-Division Holden gefertigt. Es gab ihn als Modell Berlina, Modell Calais und Modell Commodore.
  • De Holden VT was een serie van het Australische automerk Holden. De VT-serie was de derde compleet nieuwe Commodore-serie na de eerste, VB, Commodore in 1978 en de VN-Commodore in 1988. De VT-Commodore was gebaseerd op het platform van de Opel Omega uit 1995. De Holden Ute, Holden Statesman en Holden Caprice verschenen niet in de VT-serie. Deze modellen bleven in de voorgaande VS-serie.
