they already said "Homo Sexual Vehicles" will continue after holdens australian manufacturing ceases, that would imply that the H in hsv wont be changing to a C. that said, they'd have a better chance of selling me a Chevy that anything with a holden badge.

Somehow the Holden name sold Opels that did not sell with their real name, Daewoos that did not sell with their real name, a large RWD that was significantle inferior to its competitor, and made a small SUV (Cap 5) appear as a competitor to a large SUV (Tez).
The certainly should keep it. But I doubt they will for more than 7 years after local Manuf stops. |

Saw a Colorado dual cab today, it had rain guards with 'Chevrolet (bow tie logo) Colorado' printed on them, rather than 'Holden (lion logo) Colorado'
Whether... 1 They were bought online (cheaper to buy Chevy ones on eBay than pay for 'genuine Holden' ones here) 2 GM/Holden CBF getting optional extras properly branded or it's not worth the extra cost 3 GM are slowly sowing the seeds for a rebranding ...I don't know. |
