Holden's Special Edition Ute and Crewman

[Darren]

The special edition 2005 Holden Storm Ute and the first ever Holden Storm Crewman are set to join Australia’s best-selling light commercial range.

Each model delivers more than $2000 in extra retail value with a choice of striking exterior finishes across the range including Turismo blue, available for the first time on a light commercial vehicle.

Based on the Holden Ute S and Holden Crewman S respectively, both vehicles provide 175kW performance through the advanced 3.6 litre Alloytec V6 engine and a choice of six-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission.

Ute and Crewman helped Holden become the best selling light commercial brand in Australia in 2004 and more than three in every 10 LCVs sold this year have worn the Lion badge.
