Holden Special Vehicles#VXR

Holden and Tom Walkinshaw Racing – an operation owned by Scottish racing-car driver and entrepreneur Tom Walkinshaw – established Holden Special Vehicles (HSV) as a joint venture in 1987. HSV effectively replaced the Holden Dealer Team (HDT) special-vehicles operation run by Peter Brock, after Holden severed its ties with HDT in February 1987 following the Energy Polarizer and "HDT Director" controversies.

Since 1987 HSV has built an array of modified vehicles, most of which have been based on Holden models powered by either Holden or GM sourced V8 engines.

The first car developed by HSV was the Holden VL Commodore SS Group A SV of 1988, which was badged and sold by Holden for Group A touring car racing homologation purposes. It went on to win the 1990 Bathurst 1000 race. The first car developed, badged and sold as an HSV was the SV88.

HSV began converting (re-manufacturing) the Chevrolet Camaro 2SS coupe and Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD pick-up truck from left-hand-drive to right-hand-drive to GM's factory standards in mid-2018. The vehicles were sold with a factory warranty via the existing HSV-Holden dealership network. To cope with the expansion, HSV moved into a new premises, also in Clayton, in early 2018. It boosted job numbers from 130 to 150 staff in order to cope with production ramping up.{{cite web|author=Joshua Dowling |url=http://www.news.com.au/technology/innovation/motoring/motoring-news/hsv-gtsr-w1-production-ends-last-australianmade-car-rolls-off-holden-special-vehicles-assembly-line/news-story/7ceafbd2ec35e58516ba445123c77881 |title=HSV GTS-R W1 production ends: truly the last Australian-made car |publisher=News.com.au |date=2017-01-31 |access-date=2018-12-10}}

With GM discontinuing Holden in 2021, a newly formed GM subsidiary, General Motors Specialty Vehicles (GMSV), imports and distributes the Silverado in the Australasia region beginning in November 2020.

;{{anchor|GTS}} GTS

The HSV GTS is a full size high performance sedan that was based on the mainstream Commodore range. Excluding the special V6-engined editions sold in New Zealand in the VN and VP series, the proper and original V8-engined GTS was introduced in Australia in 1992 with the VP series. The GTS has represented the HSV brand's most powerful offering to date. With the exception of the Z Series, when it was not part of the range, the GTS has been built over the following series:

;{{anchor|Maloo}} Maloo

The HSV Maloo is a performance utility that has been produced since 1990 and was based on the Holden Ute. Its distinguishing features have been high-performance V8 engines and full body kits.{{citation |last1=Hawley |first1=Jonathan |last2=MacLean |first2=Andrew |last3=Nally |first3=Steve |last4=Poppitt |first4=Sean |last5=Robinson |first5=Petter |last6=Stahl |first6=Michael |title=2007 Collector's Edition HSV: 20 Years of Aussie Muscle |journal=Wheels |page=146 |year=2007}} The name "Maloo" means "thunder" in an Aboriginal language. It is said that former HSV managing director, John Crennan, coined the name for the vehicle after reading a book on Aboriginal Australians.

In 2001, HSV introduced a higher "R8" specification. In June 2006, a regular production Z Series Maloo R8 broke the record for the world's fastest production performance pickup, at 271 km/h, (168 mph) beating the previous record holder, a Dodge Ram SRT-10 by 22 km/h.{{cite web |url=http://news.hspn.com/articles/519/1/HSV-sets-new-World-Land-Speed-Record-for-PickupUtility-Truck/Page1.html |title= HSPN reviews|website=news.hspn.com |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140116142535/http://news.hspn.com/articles/519/1/HSV-sets-new-World-Land-Speed-Record-for-PickupUtility-Truck/Page1.html |archive-date=16 January 2014}}

The Maloo has been built over the following series:

• VG (1990–1991)
• VP (1991–1993)
• VR (1993–1995)
• VS (1995–2000)

• VY (2002–2004)
• VZ (2004–2007)
• VE (2007–2013)
• VF (2013–2017)

The most powerful and developed version was the Gen-F 430 kW GTS Maloo, which was launched in November 2014. It featured GTS sedan mechanicals except for the Magnetic Ride Control suspension setup that, due to limited development opportunities, HSV left exclusively for the GTS sedan, Senator Signature and Grange. This Maloo was originally limited to 165 units, later increased to 250 plus 10 for export to New Zealand.{{cite journal |date=October 2014 |title=Fully loaded |journal=Wheels |page=19}}

;{{anchor|Senator}} Senator

The HSV Senator is a full size luxury sports sedan that was first introduced in 1992. It was based on the Holden Berlina and Calais twins. From 1997, HSV offered a wagon variant (based solely on the Berlina, since the Calais was never built in that body shape) and a higher specification model known as the "Senator Signature". The Senator has been built over the following series:

• VP (1992–1993)
• VR (1993–1995)
• VS (1995–1997)
• VT (1997–2000)
• VX (2000–2002)

;{{anchor|SV88}} SV88

The HSV SV88 was the first car to bear the HSV badge and was designed to compete against HDT's luxury performance Director model car. The SV88 was launched in 1988 and based on the VL Series luxury Calais.

;{{anchor|W427}} W427

The HSV W427 was a limited edition flagship based on the E Series, which was released to celebrate the company's 20th anniversary in 2008. It was also a car produced to address the public disappointment caused by HSV canning its ambitious HRT 427 project previewed in 2002. It was powered by a {{cvt|7011|cc|L CID|1|abbr=on}} LS7 V8 engine rated at {{convert|375|kW|PS bhp|0|abbr=on}} at 6500 rpm and {{convert|640|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} at 5000 rpm of torque.{{cite web|url=https://www.carfolio.com/specifications/models/car/?car=183007|website=carfolio.com|title=2008 HSV W427 specifications|access-date=June 23, 2018}}

{{main|HSV VL SS Group A SV}}The Holden VL Commodore SS Group A SV was the first car produced by HSV. Developed under contract to Holden, it was released in March 1988. Modifications were made to the standard Holden 5.0 litre V8 to produce {{convert|180|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 5200 rpm and {{convert|380|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} at 4000 rpm. Best known for the polarising body kit and bluish-silver colour,{{Citation needed|date=November 2018}} the VL Group A SS was also the first model to feature a fuel-injected version of the Holden V8, with the first electronic fuel injection (EFI) VN Holden Commodore V8s not released until August 1988. The SV88 model was based on the VL Holden Calais and used a carburetored version of the V8 producing {{convert|136|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}.

The range of vehicles for this series included (in chronological order):

• Commodore SS Group A SV, badged and sold as a Holden for racing homologation purposes
• SV88
• SV F20

A number of models based on the VN Holden Commodore were developed by HSV, the most potent of which was the Commodore SS Group A SV built for Holden's touring car homologation requirements. It featured an extensively modified version of Holden's 5.0 litre V8 to produce {{convert|215|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 5200 rpm and {{convert|411|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} at 4000 rpm coupled to a six-speed ZF S6-40 manual transmission as used in the Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1. Upgrades were also made to the suspension, tyres and brakes. Although a total production of 500 cars was original planned for racing homologation reasons, only 302 were ultimately produced in non-sequential order meaning that build number 450 may exist while build number 100 may not.{{cite web |url=http://uniquecars.carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/portal/alias__uniquecarsau/tabID__203009/ArticleID__7710/DesktopDefault.aspx |title= Unique Cars Magazine Car Dealer – CarPoint Australia|website=uniquecars.carpoint.ninemsn.com.au |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120208125907/http://uniquecars.carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/portal/alias__uniquecarsau/tabID__203009/ArticleID__7710/DesktopDefault.aspx |archive-date=8 February 2012}} The VN Group A SS was the last Holden built as a homologation racing special.

Other models used either {{convert|180|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} or {{convert|200|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} versions of the same V8 except the SV3800, which had a {{convert|179|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} 3.8-litre V6. In 1990, the first HSV Maloo was released, based on the VG series Holden Ute of the time. The lighter Ute body provided a performance edge over the other HSV sedan counterparts. Models based on the long-wheelbase Holden VQ Caprice were released soon after. The SV90 and SV93 were treated with reworked suspension, wider front track and the {{convert|180|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} V8. The Statesman 5000i (in both series I and II form) featured {{convert|200|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}.

The VN series also spawned HSV V6-engined regional models, which are less known and widely based on Holden Commodore models with HSV add-ons.

The range of vehicles for this series included (in alphabetical order):

• Challenger (special V6 built for Canberra dealers)
• Clubsport
• DMG90 (special V6 build for Queensland dealers)
• GTS V6 (New Zealand export)
• LS (VN sedan and wagon – wagon only available in New Zealand)

and

• the Holden Commodore SS Group A SV, again badged and sold as a Holden for racing homologation purposes.

{{main|Holden Commodore (VP)}}With the release of the VP series, HSV began introducing independent rear suspension (IRS) to its models as well as introducing new model names, Senator and GTS. While the entry-level Clubsport and luxury Senator were equipped with the {{convert|180|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} V8, the high-performance GTS came standard with the {{convert|200|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} version and HSV's premium brake package. A limited-slip differential was standard across the range.

Following the appointment of award-winning designer Ian Callum as design chief for TWR, VR series HSV models benefited from a more cohesive and stylish body design. Upgrades were made to the 5.0 litre V8 to yield {{convert|185|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}, while the GTS included a 5.7-litre stroked version producing 292 PS (215 kW) (also available as an option on the Senator) from May 1994 onwards. The VS series of 1995 introduced mild styling tweaks and a new three-spoke alloy wheel design. A value-oriented Manta was established as the base HSV model to broaden appeal. In 1996, a limited edition flagship GTS-R was created which came standard with the 5.7-litre V8, Tremec T56 six-speed transmission and "Hydratrak" limited slip differential (LSD) package. Available only in a polarising bright yellow colour (known as "XU-3 Yellah") with carbon fibre inserts and large rear wing, the GTS-R engine could be blueprinted for more power. In total, 85 GTS-Rs were produced (10 exported to New Zealand). The VS series II of 1996 introduced HSV's "Integrated Security System" (ISS) as standard, which featured an immobiliser and different electronics configuration for each car produced in an effort to deter theft.{{cite web |url=http://pascale.customer.netspace.net.au/media/security.html |title=HSV further protects the investment of its owners with new VS upgrade |publisher=Pascale.customer.netspace.net.au |date=12 July 1996 |access-date=28 July 2015 |archive-date=29 February 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160229104903/http://pascale.customer.netspace.net.au/media/security.html |url-status=dead }} In 1996, a new Statesman-based model known as the Grange replaced previous HSV Statesman models.

This series was based on the all-new Holden VT Commodore range released in August 1997. It was the last series to be powered by Australian-made {{convert|265|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} 5.0 litre V8 (cast iron block) and the {{convert|300|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} 5.7-litre stroker in the GTS. A Senator Signature wagon was introduced and was mechanically identical to the sedan counterpart. The VS ute bodyshell was retained for the Maloo. There were only 180 Manta units produced, after which this model was dropped from production due to its close competition with the donor Commodore SS model.

HSV's VT range included:

• Manta (entry-level)
• Clubsport
• GTS (top performance model)
• Senator Signature (entry luxury model based on Calais)
• Senator Signature wagon
• Grange (top luxury model based on Caprice)
• Maloo (VS series based utility)
• SV99 (limited to only 99 vehicles, all produced between 1999 and 2000)

The range also comprised the XU8, which was built in limited numbers to carry last-ever Australian-made V8 engine.

The VT Series II represented a major update for HSV through the introduction of the new {{convert|340|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} 5.7 litre GENIII LS1 V8, which saw Wheels magazine name the GTS as the fastest Holden ever at the time.{{cite journal |date=October 1997 |title=X marks the Hot |journal=Wheels |page=1}} The Manta and Senator Signature wagon were both dropped from the line-up due to poor sale performance. The flagship GTS presented many unique features such as a Callaway tuned {{convert|300|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} version of the LS1, a 3.91 final drive ratio and the addition of toe-control links to its IRS design. The recent release of the new WH series Caprice in 2001 allowed the Grange to gain its new look. This series also saw the introduction of a supercharged V6 model named the XU6, which ultimately did not prove successful and was described as being agricultural against new competitors such as the Magna VR-X, which was rated a superior product in a direct comparison.{{cite journal |date=May 2001 |title=X marks the Hot |journal=Motor |location=Melbourne |page=54}} For the first time, a more performance-oriented Clubsport was launched, known as the Clubsport R8. It came standard with HSV's "Performance" suspension and braking package, which were offered as optional extras on the Clubsport. Again, the Maloo remained available using the VS ute body shell.

HSV's VT Series II range included:

• XU6 (V6 supercharged entry-level)
• Clubsport
• Clubsport R8 (new performance model)
• GTS
• Senator Signature
• Grange
• Maloo.

Acting on feedback from owners, HSV strove to differentiate its range of vehicles from the standard Holden offerings. To achieve this, HSV introduced more distinguishing bodykit and interior designs. This series also saw the LS1 engine output increase by {{convert|5|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}. The introduction of the new VU Holden Ute allowed HSV to produce an all-new Maloo variant. A limited edition Senator 300 model also became available, equipped with the {{convert|300|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} V8 and suspension modifications from the GTS.

The range included:

• XU6
• Clubsport
• Clubsport R8
• Senator Signature
• Senator 300 (top performance luxury model)
• Grange
• GTS
• Maloo (new utility bodyshell).

The VX range saw HSV offer its first Coupé models based on the new V2 series, in GTO and GTS spec. The latter replaced the GTS sedan but was powered by a less powerful {{convert|255|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} engine. A Maloo R8 model was added with similar upgraded specification to the Clubsport R8. This series saw the addition of the XU6-Maloo, which was essentially a utility version of the XU6 sedan. This model was shortly discontinued due to a lack of demand. The special edition SV300 was introduced to replace the Senator 300. Toe-control links for the rear suspension was now fitted across the range in line with the Holden VX series update, for improved handling. The VXII update also brought with it the addition of Microdots across the range in order to reduce theft, a feature HSV refers to as HSV DNA.

The range now included:

• XU6
• Clubsport
• Clubsport R8
• Senator Signature
• SV300{{cite web |url=http://www.hsv.com.au/Gen-F/see/hsv-classics/?Series=VX&Model=SV300 |title=HSV Gen-F / HSV Classics |publisher=Hsv.com.au |access-date=28 July 2015}}

Coinciding with the release of the VY Commodore, HSV produced the Y Series models adopting an even more distinguishing design and an alphabetical designation to further distance itself from donor Holden. While the GTS sedan returned (with a recalibrated ECU increasing power to {{convert|260|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}), the XU6 was discontinued due to a lack of demand attributed to a perceived lack of extra power relative to Holden's supercharged V6 sedans. The twin kidney grille design first introduced on the VR series Commodore became HSV's new signature grille. Finally, the Senator range was split into entry-level Senator and high-end luxury Senator Signature models.

The range included:

• Clubsport
• Clubsport R8
• GTS
• Senator
• Senator Signature
• Grange
• Coupé GTO
• Coupé GTS
• Maloo
• Maloo R8
• Avalanche (AWD performance wagon)

;Y II Series

This upgraded range is characterised by a significant power increase to {{convert|285|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}. Rumors followed that a new engine was due for release, with the development of GM's new LS2 nearly complete. This power upgrade closed the performance gap between HSV's mainstream models and the {{convert|300|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} flagship GTS, which prompted speculation that the GTS was set for a power increase as well. An updated WK Statesman/Caprice from Holden also formed the basis for the new Grange. The GTO Coupé returned, and the forays of parent company Holden into AWD saw the introduction of the Avalanche (based on the Holden Adventra), the XUV (based on the Holden Crewman), and the Coupé4 (based on the Holden Monaro). The latter was particularly significant, as it was the first time that Holden's AWD system had been used in such a low-riding application. These new additions to the range made the Y Series II the biggest HSV range in history, with 16 variants.

The range included:

• Clubsport
• Clubsport R8
• Clubsport SE
• GTS
• Senator
• Senator Signature
• Grange
• Coupé GTO
• Coupé GTS
• Coupé4 (AWD)
• Maloo
• Maloo R8

This series of HSVs (released in October 2004) were known as the "Z" Series, reflecting the fact they were based on the VZ-series of the donor Holden Commodore. This saw the introduction, across the range, of the new GM LS2 V8, which generated 297 kW (400 hp). The AWD models retained the less powerful LS1. The lack of a GTS model in this series was attributable to the negligible power difference between the new LS2 models and a potential {{convert|300|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} GTS, sparking rumors that the new LS7 V8 was going to be used in the next series. In lieu of the GTS, HSV released the SV6000, which was based on the Clubsport and limited to 50 units. A new WL Statesman/Caprice model also resulted in an upgraded Grange.

The Z-series was the first range with which HSV reached the Middle East with the one-make racing ClubSport R sedans,{{cite web |url=http://www.motoring.com.au/features/2008/large-passenger/holden-special-vehicles/clubsport/hsv-exports-6310 |title=HSV exports |publisher=Motoring.com.au |date=March 2008 |access-date=22 November 2015}}{{cite web|url=http://forums.v8owners.com.au/showthread.php/walkinshaw-hsv-clubsport-1989.html?s=40b100ea6f5554a94e20114f0d3255b2&s=02a84cd918d5b5e0db46e99b2093d692&|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181211010554/http://forums.v8owners.com.au/showthread.php/walkinshaw-hsv-clubsport-1989.html?s=40b100ea6f5554a94e20114f0d3255b2&s=02a84cd918d5b5e0db46e99b2093d692&|url-status=dead|archive-date=11 December 2018|title=Walkinshaw/HSV Clubsport R! - V8 Owners car club of Australia forums.|website=forums.v8owners.com.au|access-date=10 December 2018}} and it was the last series to be based on the 1997–2006 VT Commodore, which adopted the V-body.

On 25 May 2006, a standard 2006 HSV Maloo R8 driven by Mark Skaife was clocked at an averaged speed of 271.44 km/h (168.7 mph) in the Woomera, South Australia.{{cite web |url=http://carsguide.news.com.au/story/0,20384,19615660-21822,00.html |title= Maloo breaks a world record - Motoring - CARSguide|website=carsguide.news.com.au |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071119150838/http://carsguide.news.com.au/story/0%2C20384%2C19615660-21822%2C00.html |archive-date=19 November 2007}} The speed was recognised by the Guinness World Records representative, Chris Sheedy, as the Fastest Production Pickup Truck recorded. The speed improved over the previous record held by a Dodge Ram SRT-10 at 248.784 km/h (154.587 mph).

A revised range was launched in January 2006, and is designated as the Z Series MY06 (in lieu of the more traditional "Series II" moniker).

The limited edition Signature Coupe was HSV's farewell to the Monaro/GTO as the last two door coupe manufactured in Australia.

The range included:

• Clubsport

An all-new Holden Commodore chassis, known as the VE was unveiled in July 2006. Following this, a new range of "E" Series HSV models were released in August 2006.

Changes to the exhaust system yielded a {{convert|10|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} increase in power (see below) for the LS2 to {{convert|307|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}. Extensive modifications to the base VE Commodore sheetmetal and interior were introduced, most notably the unique LED taillights and distinctive side vents. The new GM 6L80-E 6 speed automatic transmission from the VE Commodore is offered, and Electronic Stability Control is standard on all models.

The GTS, Senator Signature and Grange additionally feature switchable Magnetic Ride Control to improve ride and handling. As such, the E Series represents HSV's most expensive model developments in its history,{{cite web |url=http://www.carpoint.com.au/print.aspx?TabID=500945&R=1994414&ModID=1001879 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927174537/http://www.carpoint.com.au/print.aspx?TabID=500945&R=1994414&ModID=1001879 |archive-date=27 September 2007 |title=HSV E-Series: ClubSport R8, GTS & Senator Signature August 2006 Car Review - CarPoint Australia}} with the MRC suspension system alone costing A$4.5 million.{{cite web |url=http://www.hsv.com.au/news/2006/eseries_senator.asp |title=News Archives |publisher=Hsv.com.au |access-date=28 July 2015}} In October, a new Grange model based on the Holden WM Caprice was released featuring the same V8 and MRC suspension as the Senator Signature and GTS, albeit with its own unique settings.

HSV also released a HSV Senator Signature SV08 which is released in a limited run of 20 manual and 30 automatic units. This model featured lower paint-outs, sill plates and extra chrome accents on the side mirrors and door handles. It was powered by a V8 engine developing 317 kW mated to a new Tremec TR-6060 gearbox and had 20-inch "Pentagon" wheels, Magnetic Ride Control suspension system with Sport mode and Park Assist system.

In August 2008, HSV launched its new flagship model, the W427. This car is based on the GTS, but carries a 7.0 L LS7 V8 engine along with larger brakes, strengthened gearbox, revised suspension and unique MRC settings. The W427 was the most powerful car ever made in Australia until the release of the Gen-F GTS, with power outputs of {{convert|375|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 7000 rpm and {{convert|640|Nm|lb·ft|0|abbr=on}} at 5000 rpm. It is still the most expensive, at $155 500.

On 28 March 2008, HSV announced that the LS3 6.2-litre engine would be fitted to all E-Series models (with the exception of the LS7 W427) from April 2008. The LS3 power output is {{convert|317|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}, whilst peak torque has not increased over the LS2. 12 May 2008 saw the announcement of a new HSV E Series model; the HSV "Tourer". This new model, based on the VE Holden Sportwagon was later officially released in September 2008.

The range included:

• Clubsport R8
• Clubsport R8 20th Anniversary Edition (limited edition)
• Clubsport R8 Tourer
• Clubsport GXP (limited edition)
• GTS
• W427
• Senator Signature
• Senator SV08 (limited edition)
• Grange
• Maloo R8
• Maloo GXP (limited edition)

The HSV E Series 2 range was released late 2009 and was the most major update since the release of E Series HSV's. Prices started at $65,990 for the Clubsport R8.

The range received many cosmetic changes with new front and rear bumpers, twin-nostriled bonnet (from the Pontiac G8) and a new range of wheel designs. The Series 2 has a very distinctive look set of daytime running lights standard across the E2 range.[http://www.themotorreport.com.au/41902/2010-hsv-e-series-2-range-launched The Motor Report], HSV Reveals Full E Series 2 Range. On 9 September 2010, HSV released the E Series 3.

The new engines in the range are the {{convert|325|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} 6.2-litre LS3 V8 used exclusively by the HSV GTS, with the rest of the E2 range being powered by an LS3 in {{convert|317|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} trim. The new engines have also improved fuel economy by 4.2 per cent on the LS3 V8.

New is the intelligent launch controls, Competition mode ESC and Extended cruise control systems which are all standard for E2 models excluding intelligent launch control which is only available with a manual transmission.

This last version of the E Series was released on 21 September 2010.

The noticeable changes between E Series 2 and 3 included an increase in power in the GTS range to {{convert|325|kW|hp PS|0|abbr=on}}, making it once again the top of the HSV list; the GTS E Series II was also increased to a price of $80,990; the HSV Enhanced Driver Interface (racing version of Holden IQ), the new LPI system, LPG and unleaded fuel are $5,990 options on all models except the R8 Tourer; and the updated Holden VE II Commodore interior and new rear exhaust and rear spoilers.

Although most HSV models are based on variants of the Holden Commodore, HSV also developed a select few using other vehicles from the Holden lineup.

File:Astra SV1800.jpg

{{see also|Holden Astra}}

The HSV Astra SV1800 was released in 1988, and was based on the LD-series Holden Astra of the time (which was itself based on the Nissan Pulsar N13 series).

It shared the same 1.8L engine as the standard Astra, but was released with extractors, sports exhaust and an aerodynamic sports body kit (adopted from the Walkinshaw, which is why the SV1800 was nicknamed the Baby Walky) however, only 65 were made in both sedan and hatchback form.

The 1988 HSV Astra Aero was a limited-edition model developed by Holden Special Vehicles (HSV) as counterpart to the Astra SV1800. Based on the LD-series series Holden Astra, the Aero featured primarily cosmetic and suspension enhancements. Approximately 150 units were produced, and are identifiable by the "Aero" badging on the rear instead of SV1800.

The HSV VXR Turbo is a rebadged Vauxhall Astra which was imported from Belgium between 2006 and 2009. It has a 2.0 litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing {{Convert|176|kW|hp PS|0|abbr=on}} and {{Convert|320|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}}, coupled to a 6-speed manual transmission. Additionally it is equipped with the adaptive IDS (Interactive Driving System) suspension system along with ESC, traction control system, ABS and BA. The VXR Turbo was marketed without the Astra name.{{cite web|url=http://www.hsv.com.au/cars/ESeries/vxr/vxr.asp|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080908055925/http://www.hsv.com.au/cars/ESeries/vxr/vxr.asp|archive-date=2008-09-08|title=Holden Special Vehicles (HSV) - E Series VXR|date=8 September 2008|access-date=10 December 2018}}

File:57fb.png

The mid-size SUV known as the HSV Jackaroo was introduced in 1993 as a limited-production model by Holden Special Vehicles (HSV). Based on the Holden Jackaroo S (8DQ35), itself derived from the second-generation Isuzu Trooper, the HSV Jackaroo was a cosmetic and branding enhancement rather than a performance modification.

The vehicle was available in both two-door and four-door configurations, featuring a unique HSV body kit, upgraded alloy wheels, and HSV-specific badging. A total of 85 units were produced, with 79 sold to the public and the remainder retained by dealers or as prototypes.https://hsvjackaroo.com/ {{Bare URL inline|date=May 2025}}

The HSV Jackaroo retained the standard 3.2L SOHC V6 petrol engine producing 130 kW (177 hp), with a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. It was also offered with an optional 3.1L turbocharged diesel engine with an intercooler. Unlike the HDT Jackaroo, no performance enhancements were made to the drivetrain. HSV opted against performance modifications due to the vehicle's proven success in off-road racing, particularly in events such as the Dakar Rally and the Australian Safari, where its durability and capability were already well-established.https://images.collectingcars.com/060762/MMP-22aa.jpg?fit=fillmax&auto=format,compress&cs=srgb&q=85 {{Bare URL inline|date=May 2025}}Off the Road, Brock:Around Australia with Peter Brock, {{ISBN|9780330361736}}

Only the petrol version of this car is known to exist, with 39 manual and 40 automatic versions released to the public.

Holden restructured the Jackaroo lineup at the end of 1993, leading to the release of the HSV Jackaroo SE (8DS35) in 1994, which remained in production until 1995. This model was the complete opposite of the original HSV Jackaroo—fully equipped and positioned as the top trim level. It bridged the gap between the mid-spec XS wagons and the high-end Monterey trim. Unlike its predecessor, the SE model was marketed without HSV badging but retained several signature styling upgrades characteristic of HSV vehicles.https://hsvjackaroo.com {{Bare URL inline|date=May 2025}}

The SE variant maintained the same 3.2L V6 engine producing 130 kW (177 hp) and included improvements in electronic communication between the engine management system and the automatic transmission, leading to smoother gear transitions.{{cite web | url=https://hsvjackaroo.com/Media.html | title=Media }} A total of 234 HSV Jackaroo SE units were produced.

Key distinguishing features of the SE model included the original HSV Wheel-arch flares, SV5000 style Alloy wheels, four different options of the Two-tone paint scheme, instead of the original Radiant Red and Updated interior trim. The Vehicle lost its external HSV corporate branding

While retaining its original off-road capability, the SE model was targeted at buyers seeking a more refined and stylish SUV without altering its mechanical performance.

The HSV SportsCat{{Cite web|url=https://utilities.walkinshawgroup.com/multimedia/hsv/brochures/2019/HSV-SportsCat.pdf|title=SportsCat |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200226085949/https://utilities.walkinshawgroup.com/multimedia/hsv/brochures/2019/HSV-SportsCat.pdf |accessdate=29 June 2023|archive-date=26 February 2020 }} is a high-performance sports utility vehicle (SUV) produced from 2018 to 2020. Based on the Holden Colorado, the SportsCat features enhanced suspension, styling, and braking upgrades over the standard model.

Introduced as HSV's first sports-oriented 4x4, the SportsCat was designed to compete in the performance ute segment. It retained the 2.8L Duramax turbo-diesel engine from the Colorado but received chassis and handling refinements.

The SportsCat was available in two trim levels:{{cite web | url=https://www.hsv.com.au/see/sportscat/ | title=HSV / SportsCat }}

SportsCat V – Base model featuring HSV styling, sports suspension, and interior upgrades.

SportsCat SV – Higher-spec variant with additional performance features, including a rear de-coupling anti-roll bar and an AP Racing brake package.

The HSV SportsCat features HSV Sports Suspension, with an optional SupaShock system for enhanced road and off-road capability. Braking performance is upgraded on the SV model, which includes AP Racing 4-piston front brakes. It rides on 18-inch forged alloy wheels fitted with Cooper Zeon LTZ all-terrain tyres. Inside, the cabin is equipped with HSV Performance seats, upholstered in Windsor Suede with red stitching. The MyLink infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Satellite Navigation, while safety features include Lane Departure Warning and Forward Collision Alert.

The SportsCat ceased production in 2020, following the closure of HSV operations and the discontinuation of the Holden brand in Australia.

Plans for a high power version of the Holden Colorado using the LT1 engine and a 10-speed transmission was cancelled in 2020 with the closure of HSV and Holden. Two prototypes were built with powertrains taken from crash-tested Chevrolet Camaros, one based on a HSV SportsCat, and the other based on a North American Chevrolet Colorado to be aimed at that market. It was the final project worked on by HSV, and would have received a new name, ThunderCat being one of the considered options.{{cite web|date=2021-11-17|title=HSV Colorado V8, top secret ute track-tested|url=https://www.drive.com.au/reviews/hsv-colorado-v8-top-secret-ute-track-tested/|access-date=2021-11-30|website=Drive|language=en-AU}}

2017

• Last Australian-made car to roll off a local assembly line. Last GTS-R W1 — the fastest, most powerful and the most expensive car ever built in Australia. [http://www.news.com.au/technology/innovation/motoring/motoring-news/hsv-gtsr-w1-production-ends-last-australianmade-car-rolls-off-holden-special-vehicles-assembly-line/news-story/7ceafbd2ec35e58516ba445123c77881]

In 2014, HSV reported the following production milestones:

• June 1991: 5,000th HSV built was a SV T-30
• April 1997: 20,000th HSV built was a Senator
• August 2003: 40,000th HSV built was a ClubSport
• July 2006: 50,000th HSV built was a ClubSport
• February 2013: 75,000th HSV built was a ClubSport
• September 2014: 80,000th HSV built was a ClubSport R8 in Phantom Black paint.

HSV exported its range to New Zealand without any rebranding, as in the case of Singapore, where exports resumed in 2010 after a two-decade absence.{{cite web |url=http://www.carsales.com.au/news/2010/large-passenger/hsv/hsv-revives-holden-exports-to-singapore-22688 |title=HSV revives Holden exports to Singapore |publisher=carsales.com.au |access-date=25 April 2011 |archive-date=27 November 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101127222436/http://www.carsales.com.au/news/2010/large-passenger/hsv/hsv-revives-holden-exports-to-singapore-22688 |url-status=dead }} From the 2000s, however, exports to the United Kingdom and Middle East, saw the cars rebadged Vauxhall and CSV, respectively.

• The Coupé GTO, in Y Series II and Z Series, was exported to the UK badged as the Vauxhall Monaro VXR. They were powered by a {{cvt|285|kW|hp}}) LS1 V8 engine and a {{cvt|298|kW|hp}} LS2 V8 engines, respectively.
• Between 2007 and 2013, the E Series of the Clubsport R8 was also exported to the UK badged as the Vauxhall VXR8. This car was powered by the standard 6-Litre LS2 V8 engine with {{cvt|307|kW|PS hp|0}} and {{cvt|550|Nm|lb·ft|0}}, but was also available as a {{cvt|560|kW|PS hp|0}} supercharged model using the same kit that had been available in Australia as an option via Walkinshaw Performance. These models were followed by a VXR8 GTS, which was based on the HSV E2 GTS in Australia. This model was updated with a new front end and a 6.2-litre LS3 V8 engine with {{cvt|325|kW|PS hp|0}} and {{cvt|550|Nm|0}}, which was sold until 2013, when the updated Gen-F was introduced with a 6.2-litre supercharged LSA V8 with {{cvt|430|kW|PS hp|0}} and {{cvt|740|Nm|0}}. This was sold until 2017, when Holden stopped manufacturing in Australia.

{{Distinguish|Corsa Specialised Vehicles}}

• HSV first reached into the Middle Eastern market with a one-race series featuring stripped down ClubSport R (Z Series) sedans in Dubai and Bahrain.
• The Clubsport R8 (E Series) followed as a road legal car, rebadged as the Chevrolet Special Vehicles CR8

;HRT Maloo utility

Based on the VX HSV Maloo, it was fitted with a new bodykit featuring significantly flared wheel arches to accommodate wider track and 20-inch wheels. The roof was lowered and modifications made to the suspension to produce a "ground hugging" stance. The ute was powered by a LS6 V8 stroked to 6.2 litres (producing 350 kW (469 hp)) with exhaust exiting from the side.

;HRT 427

{{See also|Holden Monaro}}

Unveiled at the 2002 Sydney Motor Show, the HRT (Holden Racing Team) 427 was based on a modified Holden Monaro bodyshell and, among other things, it featured a {{convert|427|in3}} (7.0-Litre) V8 engine (adapted from the Corvette C5-R) – hence the name. Due to the high cost specifications, the business case for full production failed since Holden could not build the 427 in such limited quantities for the original asking price of A$215,000.{{cite web |url=http://www.gregwapling.com/hotrod/prototypes/holden-hrt427/index.html |title=Prototypes and Concept Cars > Holden HRT 427 |work=Hot Rods Down Under |access-date=18 April 2015}} In all, only two road and four racing versions were ever built.

;GTS-R

{{See also|Holden Monaro}}

This concept was unveiled at the 2004 Sydney Motor Show also based on the Monaro bodyshell. Similarities could be drawn with the HRT 427, however, this model was only intended for a one-make racing series and was powered by a modified 6.0-litre version of Chevrolet's LS2 V8 engine producing {{convert|335|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}. This concept, too, never reached production.

• Power: {{convert|580|Hp|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 6000 rpm.
• Torque: {{convert|752|Nm|0|abbr=on}} at 4200 rpm.

The supercharged 6.2L LSA is similar to the LS9 and debuted in the 2009 CTS-V. The LSA has been SAE certified at 556 bhp (415 kW) at 6100 rpm and 551 lb·ft (747 N·m) at 3800 rpm. GM labels it "the most powerful ever offered in Cadillac's nearly 106-year history". The LSA features a smaller 1.9L capacity supercharger rather than the 2.3 L variant of the LS9. Other differences include a slightly lower 9.0:1 compression ratio, single unit heat exchanger and cast pistons.

A 580 bhp (430 kW) and 556 lb·ft (754 N·m) version of the LSA engine is used in the 2012 Camaro ZL1. On 26 April 2013, HSV announced that this version of the LSA engine will also be used in the GEN-F GTS.

• Power: {{convert|375|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (W427)
• Torque: {{convert|640|Nm|abbr=on|0}} (W427)

This engine was originally used in the sixth-generation Corvette Z06 that was then shipped over for usage in the W427. It made its first appearance in Australia in 2008. The W427 was designed and built to celebrate the 20th anniversary of HSV.

• Power: {{convert|317|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (E Series), {{convert|325|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (E Series II GTS), 340 kW (462 PS, 456 hp) (GEN-F SV Enhanced models)
• Torque: {{convert|550|Nm|lb·ft|0|abbr=on}} (E Series), {{convert|570|Nm|lb·ft|0|abbr=on}} (GEN-F SV Enhanced models)

This engine debuted in the E Series. It is a GM built LS3 V8 customized for HSV's usage. The transition from LS2 to LS3 was primarily to meet impending Euro IV emissions requirements being introduced in Australia on 1 January 2009 and to compete against 2008's {{convert|315|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} FPV GT.

• Power: {{convert|297|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 6000 rpm (Z series), {{convert|307|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (E Series)
• Torque: {{convert|530|Nm|0|abbr=on}} at 4400 rpm (Z series), {{convert|550|Nm|0|abbr=on}} (E Series)

This engine debuted in the Z series. It is a GM built LS2 V8 customized for HSV's usage.

One of the main reasons that this engine was used is that the LS1 V8 does not meet ADR 79/01 (Euro III) emissions regulations. This new engine also has connections to the L76 6.0-litre used in the VZ and VE Holden Commodores.

• Power: {{convert|250|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VTII), {{convert|255|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VX), {{convert|260|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (Y series), {{convert|270|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (AWD models), {{convert|285|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (YII series)
• Torque: {{convert|473|Nm|lb·ft|abbr=on}} (VTII), {{convert|475|Nm|lb·ft|abbr=on}} (VX),{{convert|475|Nm|lb·ft|abbr=on}} (Y series), {{convert|510|Nm|lb·ft|abbr=on}} (YII series)

This motor started its debut in the VTII series of HSV sedans. It produced {{convert|250|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} of power – {{convert|30|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} more than HSV's previous "Stroker" 5.7 V8 used in the VT. It was a slightly de-tuned version, with {{convert|7|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} less than when it was in the two-door sports body of the Corvette. Continuous modifications were made to the LS1 engine throughout its lifetime, reaching {{convert|285|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} in the YII series, just {{convert|15|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} under the {{convert|300|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} GTS. AWD models such as the Coupé4 retained a similar configuration to other YII series models but were fitted with a more restrictive exhaust system, reducing power to {{convert|270|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}. The LS1 was phased out for the new 6.0-litre LS2 in the Z Series. However, it was still used in the AWD models of the Z series.

• Power: {{convert|300|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 6000 rpm
• Torque: {{convert|510|Nm|lb·ft|abbr=on}} at 4800 rpm A modified version of the LS1 enhanced by Callaway Cars Incorporated, this engine was used on the VTII, VX and Y series of GTS models as well as the SV300. Differences from the LS1 included ported cylinder heads, larger throttle body, revised camshaft, remapped ECU, titanium valve spring retainers, upgraded valve springs and valves. The compression ratio was also lowered slightly to 9.95:1 and the engine ran MAFless. In HSV models, this engine was used with a higher than standard 3.91:1 final drive ratio.

• Power: {{convert|215|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 4800 rpm (VR-VS), {{convert|220|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VT)
• Torque: {{convert|475|Nm|0|abbr=on}} at 3600 rpm This motor had its debut in the VR series of HSV sedans. It was a bored and stroked version of the Holden 304ci 5.0 litre and was originally available on the VR Senator and GTS 215i. A Tremec T-56 six-speed manual gearbox option exclusive to this engine was introduced as the then current Borg-Warner T-5 5-speed could not reliably handle the prodigious amounts of torque it produced. The HSV VS GTS-R had the blueprint option to produce more power at around {{convert|230|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}. The 215i engine was also available on the Grange long-wheelbase model. Its last appearance was in the VT GTS(Series 1). The LS1 replaced it in the VTII series.

• Power: {{convert|180|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 5200 rpm (VL),{{convert|165|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VN SS) {{convert|215|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VN Group A SS), {{convert|200|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VP), {{convert|180|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 4800 rpm (VN-VP), {{convert|185|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VR-VS), {{convert|195|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} (VT)
• Torque: {{convert|380|Nm|0|abbr=on}} at 4000 rpm(VL), {{convert|411|Nm|lb·ft|abbr=on}} (VN Group A SS), {{convert|410|Nm|0|abbr=on}} at 3600 rpm (VN-VP), {{convert|400|Nm|0|abbr=on}} at 3600 rpm (VN-VS), {{convert|430|Nm|0|abbr=on}} at 3600 rpm (VT)

This engine for HSV was available in 2 guises. The twin throttle bodied versions designed for racing use were available in the VL and VN Group A cars from 1988 and 1990 respectively. For the majority of HSV sedans using this capacity motor, the engines were modified versions of the standard EFI Holden V8. Note that there was also a VP equipped Clubsport 5000i that used the remaining 4 bolt main Group A blocks with SV5000 red motor ancillaries.

The LS1 replaced it in the VTII series.

• Additionally:

1. A non-EFI version was fitted to the VL Calais SV88, producing {{convert|136|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 4400 rpm and {{convert|355|Nm|lb·ft|abbr=on}} at 3200 rpm.

2. The VL SS Group A SV Commodore was the first Holden V8 to feature Electronic Fuel Injection.

• Power: {{convert|180|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 5000 rpm
• Torque: {{convert|380|Nm|lb·ft|0|abbr=on}} at 3200 rpm

Available on the VT and VX series HSV XU6. Also only two HSV VX Senators were ever produced with a V6 Supercharged motor. There were several limited VT HSV sedans and wagons with the L67. This engine is a modified version of Holden's supercharged V6 with upgraded air intake and exhaust to boost power from the standard {{convert|171|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}}. Due to the popularity and superior performance of Ford's standard I6 engine, let alone the turbocharged variant, this model was removed from the line-up after the VY series.

• Power: {{convert|130|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 4888 rpm
• Torque: {{convert|255|Nm|lb·ft|0|abbr=on}} at 3000 rpm

Available on the HSV Jackaroo and HSV Jackaroo SE, the 3.2L SOHC V6 engine produced {{convert|130|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|255|Nm|lb·ft|0|abbr=on}} of torque. These models retained the standard engine configuration from the Holden Jackaroo, without performance modifications.

• Power: {{convert|177|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} at 5600 rpm
• Torque: {{convert|320|Nm|lb·ft|0|abbr=on}} at 2400 rpm

This 4-cylinder engine is used in the HSV VXR, a model based on the Vauxhall Astra VXR/Opel Astra OPC.

In 2005, HSV provided sponsorship for the V8 Supercar team formerly known as the Kmart Racing Team. The team adopted HSV Dealer Team as their new name. With Rick Kelly and Garth Tander driving the two cars, the newly renamed team struggled in its first few outings in 2005, they found form later in the season, and from round one led the 2006 Championship to victory. Rick Kelly won the 2006 series.. In 2007, Tander and Kelly won 17 races between them out of a possible 37, with Tander winning 15 of them and four round wins, winning the championship along the way. HSVDT also won their second Teams Championship in succession. The team was disbanded for the 2009 season. HSV's remaining sponsorship is with Walkinshaw Andretti United.

HSV's direct rival was Ford Australia through its various performance arms, namely Ford Tickford Experience (FTE) from 1999, and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) from 2002 to 2014, with their production of modified Ford Falcon-based cars. Another rival, albeit on a smaller scale,{{cite journal |date=November 1999 |title=Motor Mouth |journal=Motor |page=9}} has been Corsa Specialised Vehicles (CSV – not to be confused with HSV's exports badged Chevrolet Special Vehicles in some markets) with its Commodore-based high performance cars that included the CSV GTS of 2007. This CSV beat the HSV W427 to the market by being the first Holden vehicle powered by a 7.0L LS7 V8 engine.{{cite web|date=December 2007 |url=http://www.motoring.com.au/reviews/2008/large-passenger/holden-special-vehicles/gts/csv-gts-ls7-5794 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150620181509/http://www.motoring.com.au/reviews/2008/large-passenger/holden-special-vehicles/gts/csv-gts-ls7-5794 |url-status=dead |archive-date=2015-06-20 |title=CSV GTS LS7 |work=Wheels |publisher=Motoring.com.au |access-date=21 June 2015 }}
