Important stuff from the link

The Holden Trax city SUV is almost half price, with discounts ranging from $10,000 to $11,000, bringing this $23,990 model to the bargain price of about $13,000

The mid-size Holden Equinox is also a flat rate $10,750 off, or about a third off the price of the base model, bringing it from a bit over $30,000 drive-away to close to $20,000 drive-away.

The Holden Acadia seven-seat family SUV is between $11,500 and $17,000 off, between a quarter and one-third off the price of the car.

The cheapest discount is on the Holden Commodore – $7500 off – while the Astra hatch and sedan that were also discontinued last year have a flat rate of $8500 off to about $12,000 drive-away for the base models.


Additional Info (Thanks Techie4066):

Discounts on driveaway costs. All stock in remaining dealerships is expected to be depleted well before the end of 2020, with some dealers expecting to close by the end of financial year (June 30). Expected discounts from the start of March according to dealer bulletin (subject to change):

Holden Colorado (ute) - $13,000 to $17,500 off
Holden Trax (small SUV) - $10,000 to $11,000 off (down to ~$13,000 driveaway)
Holden Acadia (large seven seat SUV) - $11,500 to $17,00 off

Holden Astra (hatch/sedan) - $8,500 off (down to ~$12,000 base model driveaway)
Holden Equinox (medium SUV) - $10,750 off (down to ~$20,000 base model driveaway)

Opinions vary on these vehicles, but do jump on them if you have been in the market and are happy with what's available. Holden will provide servicing and spare parts for the next ten years (through a national aftersales network), ongoing call centre support, will issue recalls where necessary, and will honour existing warranties, guarantees and free scheduled servicing offers.

Mod: Article/bulletin lists the prices as drive away, but the pricing is not final and may be subject to change. As always, the deal may be removed (unobtainable) in the future, if it does not go ahead as (or close to) advertised/listed. Minor changes will be updated.

Mod: The deal become largely unobtainable. See comments. Moved to forums.

  • They will remove the service crew in 5 years. Why would they keep them around for 10 years considering they took the 400 million the federal government gave them for Australian manufacturing and put it into their Detroit plant.

  • any1 got 1?

  • How much bigger is the Acadia compared to Equinox?
    Wonder if it would be harder to drive for my Mrs?

      1. Much bigger
      2. Only you would know this, but from experience, probably not
    • About 32cm longer and 7cm wider which is significant. It depends on the person whether it is 'harder' to drive. Some people hate big cars, some people hate small cars. I personally wouldn't want to drive something that big for a daily drive. Need to find bigger parking spaces, bigger turning circle.

      If they are short, they may need to step up to get into the car as it is higher.

      • We've got a CX9 (which is bigger than the Acadia) as one of our daily cars. Missus loves driving it, never an issue turning or finding a parking spot.
        If they've driven a small hatchback all their life then it will take some getting used to but they're not a difficult size at all.

        We looked at the Acadia but there is very little boot space if you need a 7 seater and associated kid's luggage.

        I suggest test driving one if you're on the fence about it.

    After all the BS trying to get equinox black edition for under 30k, dealer wont budge.
    I gave up and end up getting brand new crv vti for 31.5k.
    Its a nicer car minus the sunroof the equinox has.

      Nice!
      I hope they call you back willing to negotiate make sure you tell them you bought the Honda!

      • Sure will. I haven't got anything against the saleperson it is his job to get the best price.
        What annoys me is the tactic Holden employs in drumming up hype. It turns out to be a flop.
        I'm sure there will be a fire sale in a couple of months with really good discounts. Unfortunately I cannot wait that long.

    • For around $33K D/A, I would consider a new MY19 Koleos with 7 years warranty and 3 years servicing (it's a Nissan X-Trail twin I know, but with European style and handling not simply rebadged).

      • Was going to get an X-Trail but foot operated parking brake just annoying me. My left foot keep on bumping it and it's always there in the back of my mind while driving.
        Is the Koleos similar?

        • Auto or manual? I had no issues with my 2016 X-Trail.

    • I got my Equinox black ed for $27k, is it an ok deal? Interior is quite flimsy but I like the pano sunroof & outlook.

    Lol. GM and it sdealer network is really good at screwing aussies.

    People are paying more for Holden now than the "closing down sale" campaign.

    Buyers jumping in now will regret it when it is time to sell.

  • Pickles have some low kay used holdens they are selling fixed price.

      Still seem expensive as you will pay transfer/stamp duty on top of those prices. Plenty of Equinox's advertised at dealers for 26k DA without haggling.
