Called VF internally, the Commodore SS V ditches the last-gen model's angular body in favor of a fluid design that puts it in line with other members of the Holden family. Â The front end features a more prominent grille and big air intakes flanked by LED running lights, while the back end gains horizontal tail lamps that help give the car a wider stance.
All models regardless of trim level come with Holden's Auto Park Assist, a feature that enables the car to park itself in a parallel spot or in a 90-degree spot. Â Holden's touch-screen based MyLink infotainment system and a keyless ignition also come standard. Â
Surprisingly, Holden has not released any technical information about the car. Â The firm promises that the Commodore SS V will return better fuel economy than the outgoing model thanks in part to weight-reducing aluminum body panels and electric power steering.
The 2013 Holden Commodore SS V will land in Australian showrooms this summer.  The long-awaited Chevrolet SS will be revealed on Saturday at the Daytona International Speedway in Florida.
