The VE Calais has new levels of luxury, safety, sports appeal and performance with the new High Performance Alloytec 195kW V6 standard and the option of the 270kW GEN 4 V8. Holden engineers set out to enhance the Commodore and the result is a superb vehicle that sets the standard for Australian cars.
Calais is long and wide and has plenty of legroom, front and rear. The interior is enhanced with standard cloth seats with leather bolsters and surrounds the driver with luxury. There's an incredible array of comfort features combined with intelligent safety and convenience enhancements. The 'wrap around' style cockpit is very driver-oriented, while still retaining a sense of roominess, and the 12 function trip computer displays vital information.
Calais now looks and feels like a sports luxury performer. Body features, accented by a bolder and fuller front facia, lower ride height and big 17 inch wheels, aggressively reflect its stronger intent. Calais features new luxury sports suspension
Rear park assist is standard equipment. When reverse gear is selected, a speaker emits an audible beep in response to signals from four ultrasonic sensors mounted in the rear bumper. The frequency of the beeps increases as
the vehicle gets closer to an obstacle behind it. The system is calibrated to detect poles, fences, walls and of course other vehicles and humans - large and small.
Your personal Priority Key means even if someone else has been driving the Calais, it will return the sound system, climate control, speed alarm and other personal settings automatically to your preferred positions. The all new Holden Calais is just waiting to be judged on it's credentials.
