Its 100mm shorter than VZ I think.. I think its Motor magazine has the interior volumes. Still like double what the 300C has, but it is less than the VZ wagon.

The VE wagon is built on the sedan wheel base. I don't quite understand that decision myself but still might be in the market for one next car.

MY15 SSV Redline Sportwagon + VZ Monaro CV8 M6
latest Wheels magazine (the one with the SSV on the front) also mentions it's shorter design, which I did mention way b4 the big site crash :bang: ...

basically Holden know ppl aren't buying "conventional" wagons and are heading for SUV's, so Holden's wanting to tackle a different market - ie the Sportswagon, things like Subaru Liberty/Impreza, those kinda cars, and yeah, the 300C as well...

and the magazine states the SS will get the same wheels and engine as the sedan (no less kW like they did for the Adventra) and will also be available in both auto and Manual... (hello SS-V Wag with a Clutch!) :w00t:

You could already get an SS wagon with a clutch in VY.

The big news here is Calais V Wagon, they better offer a manual version for them aswell.

The VY was a limited run. I wanted one of those cars but they had all gone. I don't think there will be a manual Calais version. GM will suggest you get a SS-V if you want manual.

Yeah i'm not holding my breath.

I suppose i could tick all the boxes on an SSV, but it doesn't seem as 'classy' as having a Manual 6L Calais V wagon.
