Used Holden Trax review: 2013-2020
By David Morley · 05 May 2020
While Holden had the larger end of the SUV market covered by the start of this decade, it didn't have a fair dinkum contender at the bite-sized end.Enter the Trax, a high-riding wagon with the usual SUV touches including the wheelarch extensions and big alloy wheels.The catch was that the Trax you really wanted was the more expensive version with the superior engine.Nothing has changed there.

Holden Captiva used review: 2006-2017
By David Morley · 24 Apr 2020

Holden Acadia 2020 review: LTZ long term
By Malcolm Flynn · 31 Jan 2020
The Holden Acadia is a reminder that there's still many ways to build a large seven-seat SUV, as pretty much every major car brand tries to outdo each other in their quest to build a big family machine with van-like practicality, car-like drive experience and looks that suggest you're still an adventurer at heart.
