The figures show Australians purchased a total of 10,468 Holdens during January, with Commodore, Cruze, Captiva, Barina and Colorado all selling well.
For Holden, January highlights include:

* The best Barina month since January 2007 (1379 sold); and,
* Commodore was Australia’s best-selling car (3241 sold).
Holden’s Executive Director of Sales and Marketing John Elsworth said overall it was the best monthly sales result since January 2007.
“We’re planning a big year and this is a fantastic start,” Mr Elsworth said.
“The sales momentum we saw developing in December last year looks like it has carried over into the new year.
“We’ve grown our market share to 14.0% of what is a crowded and competitive market and we’re pleased with how we are tracking across our model range."
