Holden introduced the Vectra for the Australian market in 2002. It was a badge-engineered car, similar to the Opel/Vauxhall Vectra.
GM didn't bother to build the Vectra in Australia, even though the car was not completely identical to the European version. For Down Under, Holden offered specific engines such as the 3.2-liter V6, which proved to be the most reliable for the Vectra. Since most of the other versions were unsuitable for the Australian environment, the vehicle was not very successful, and it was withdrawn from the market after just three years.
The exterior featured a new design trend for its headlights, with a rectangular, swept-back look and a pair of headlamps inside. Its grille was identical to the one found on Opel or Vauxhall, with a horizontal slat and the round badge on it. Holden offered the Vectra in a few body shapes. The liftback version featured a longer rear window and, as you guessed, a liftgate.
Inside, the cabin featured front bolstered seats, made for the European wingding roads, and soft enough for long travels. In the back, the manufacturer installed a bench with a split-folding backrest, which could expand the trunk from 500 liters (17.6 cu-ft) to 1360 liters (48 cu-ft).
Under the hood, Holden offered a wide choice of engines ranged from a four-pot 1.8-liter gasoline to a 3.2-liter V6. There were a few options for diesel-powered powerplants.
