    Well considering the main marketing message of the VE was "The evolution ends here"....will we see a new commodore? lol

    No, it just means that they have used all their ideas and the next Commodore will have the same features apart from a slight face lift lol.

    I think they are facelifting it this year.
    The VE's been around for 4 years nearly now, the VZ lasted 3 years at the most, so will be interesting to see what they do.
    My guess would be a VY-VZ style upgrade, where they just change the design slightly, and maybe tweak the engine.

    After having driven the new SV6 SIDI Wagon in the Gold Coast, I will definitely say the 6-speed Auto needs to be re-configured, the down-changes are way toooo sensitive, and the semi-auto function doesnt allow to change the gears you want.

    Guess that's why I drive and always will drive manuals.

    I dont see why they wont use the VF model for the next update, but after that, they may have to do a Ford and change the model code (for lack of a better word), start a new series code. ZA Commodore? DA Commodore? Kinda doesnt sound right lol.
