In 1988, Holden Special Vehicles rose from the ashes of Holden Dealer Team to create high performance vehicles based upon more road going Commodore.
Today, HSV thrives, and has been responsible for some utterly bonkers four door sedans, utes and more. Today is a special day for HSV, though, as the 85,000th HSV leaves the assembly line.
The brand took to Facebook to celebrate the achievement, with a photo of the HSV team gathered around a Slipstream Blue Clubsport R8, equipped with the 6.2-liter LSA supercharged V8 engine.
So, what’s next for HSV? The brand has stated it believes its Holden partnership will continue on, despite the local, rear-wheel drive Commodore ending production in 2017. There’s also the very good chance for a reborn GTS-R, and quite possibly a few other surprises before Holden manufacturing closes up shop for good.

Good on them. Good to see a company surviving and thriving in a country that is not friendly towards homegrown vehicles.
