Holden Commodore VX, VU

The Holden Commodore, Berlina and Calais (VX), plus Ute (VU) range of full-size cars were the eleventh installment of Holden Commodore, a model manufactured by Holden, the Australian subsidiary of General Motors (GM). Produced between October 2000 and September 2002, the VX served as minor update to the VT series from 1997 and premiered revised styling, greater model differentiation, along with gains in crash safety. An intermediate Series II was launched in August 2001, featuring a revised suspension system among other changes.

The VU Ute replaced the VS Utility. The range received a minor refresh with the VX Series 2 models 12 months later, with the major upgrade being an additional 5 kW (7 hp) to Holden's Generation 3 V8's. The VU was superseded by the VY ute in September 2002.
