Detailed Review: The Holden Commodore SSV Redline is a bonkers family station wagon!

Outstanding review. You mentioned the 13.1L/100 which is the claimed numbers from Holden - is that what you got during your test?

[@TheWordOnCars]

Thank you @stevewelsh__! I’ve had to dip into my notes on this one given it’s been a little while since I reviewed the SSV. Based on a mix of freeway (say 70%) and city (say 30%) the SSV hovered around 12L/100kms and I was putting my foot into it when I got the chance. If you’re spending most of your time in traffic or in the city, you could easily hit 15/16 (or even more) but on the highway I remember it being quite good (definitely under 10). Hope this helps!

@@TheWordOnCars that’s a huge help thanks! I’ve been tossing up between one of these and an SV6 for daily / work, in my research it seems that while the sv6 generally gets better mileage, it loses much of it with passengers or work gear in the back, and I’d prefer the grunt.

[@TheWordOnCars]

No worries mate. Agree, the SV6 wouldn’t be all that great if you’re pulling extra weight around… the LS3 would make that effortless even though it might churn through a little more fuel. I’m not sure what state you’re in… fuel prices in Victoria are ridiculous these days… but the smiles per litre in the SSV Redline (on top of the fact it’s practical) makes it a winner! Happy shopping 😉

Great choice @AmaraDungus24. I’m sure you’ll be behind the wheel of your very own SSV before you know it! 😊
