It is the second and last significant restyled iteration of the final fourth generation of the Holden Commodore to be manufactured in Australia. Its range comprises sedan and station wagon body variants that also sell in luxury Holden Calais (VF) guise. A commercial utility version also sells under the Holden Ute (VF) guise. The Commodore SS sedan is exported to the United States and rebadged as the Chevrolet SS. Holden Special Vehicles (HSV) uses the VF series as the basis of its performance Gen-F sedan sedan, wagon and utility range, which are also exported to the United Kingdom and rebadged as the Vauxhall VXR8 range. In December 2013, GM announced that it will discontinue Australian production of the VF Commodore and all other Australian production in 2017. == Development == The VF Commodore is built on an altered version of the Holden designed GM Zeta platform, which was first used in the VE Commodore. The VF is an evolution of the VE, with several visual changes. The VF features new styling at the front and rear, with a more modern, sculpted appearance replacing the simplicity of the VE's design. Changes include altered headlights and tail lamps, alterations to the plastic of the intake and grille and the use of a lip-spoiler instead of a rear wing on the performance models. The bodyshell, windows, doors, mirrors and roof were all carried over from the VE and the wagon and utility variants use the same tail lamps as the VE models. The wheelbase and track also remain unchanged. The interior has also undergone major changes, with switches such as the boot lid release being relocated from the glove box to the doors and the fitting of an electronic handbrake.〔 All models are fitted with an eight-inch touch screen in the centre console, with keyless entry and auto-park assist also being standard across all models. Other features include a head-up display on the windscreen, forward and rear collision warning systems, blind spot monitors and a lane departure warning system, however these are not standard on all models. The VF uses an electric power steering system, rather than the hydraulic system used on previous Commodores, which is slightly more fuel-economical at the cost of steering feel. The majority of the testing for the VF was completed in Australia but it was also driven in Germany, the Middle East, North America and Sweden.〔 Show-car versions of the SS V and the Calais V were unveiled to the public on 10 February 2013, with the first pre-production models completed in April 2013. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Holden Commodore (VF)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
