Vauxhall Maloo VXR8 LSA - 550hp Super-Ute!

Sometimes something unusual comes along, and in this case it's the Vauxhall Maloo VXR8 LSA - a pick-up 'ute' with 544PS and a 6.2l V8! Originating from the Australian Holden HSV Maloo, the car is on sale in the UK in limited numbers and really is unique in its field.
With a huge storage area that's set for 540kg of goods, it still manages to get to 62mph in 4.6 seconds and to a top speed of 155mph, meanwhile with a crackling V8 doing its thing. In the UK it is officially classed as a 'Commercial Vehicle', meaning it can be bought with the VAT removed through a company.
While visiting the Vauxhall Heritage Centre to take the new car out for a drive, it's also an opportunity to have a look around some older gems.
Thanks for watching, Tim

Why is it such a bizarre concept? It's a sports utility vehicle which can be used as a work and daily car. Sure it's not as practical as a proper work vehicle but stil... You'd be surprised how many tradies have these kinds of utes in Australia. They're actually good towing vehicles too.

[@michaelduong3852]

and also quite good off road as well! seen a couple doing beach runs while im in my landcruiser.

[@davidnelson2370]

It's the ultimate status symbol at the work-site, for the self-made tradie that has everything! And to really keep up with the Jones's, it's not complete without a couple of dirt bikes in the back, and a jetski on a trailer behind!

[@sumit_john]

Andrew even better for burnouts. Trust me

[@DOZDDMGator]

no one who owns a maloo does any actual work lol their useless as actual work vehicles, it cant tow and has a lower load capacity than the commodore wagon. get an SS or an XR6/XR8 if you actually want to use it for its intended purpose, 1 ton load capacity and 2 ton towing for both, one has the 6.2 V8 and the other has whats effectively a more reliable 2JZ with an extra 1L displacement or fords BOSS 5.0L V8

As an Australian it kind of hurts to see our icon called a Vauxhall, ouch haha I also found it funny that you said your FF was more common. Here in Australia they are all over the place, never seen an FF though.

[@dramoth64]

Considering that the Torana was originally a Vauxhall Viva which was designed and built in the UK. My mum had a HB Torana which was basically a HB Viva. Lovely little car.

[@timnoske4705]

Tim, In Australia. the Maloo is more treated as a coupe with a really big boot than a commercial vehicle. It's used for recreational use, to put your jet ski or trail bike in the back, more than for work. Also, just a reference, "Ute" is pronounced "Yute" not "oot"

[@Jack9788]

fell in love with this concept when I first went to Australia. I've often dreamt about having one over here in Belgium where big V8's are taxed like mad unless it is, what the law defines as a 'light freight', obviously meaning a van or pickup. Not what is essentially a muscle/sports car with a big boot. It would be such a big 'up yours' to our ridiculous eco minded tax system. 😀

[@tomnewham1269]

Awesome how you enjoyed driving it and great to hear someone like you who owns/drives super cars their perspective on such an Aussie icon. I own a non supercharged version in the same colour and I love it. And I don’t have the hard lid either so mine can carry a fridge etc. It is a keeper for sure. You need to drive the W1 version of this car, trifeo tyres standard with a 474 kw V8. A real shame they don’t make them no more. Just to show how a small nation could build such an iconic and world class vehicle. Oh you speak about the handling, Holden has one of the best ride/handling engineers in the world. You will find that our roads are quite rough and so cars sold in Australia have different suspension tune which I’m sure make them suited to most roads in the world. Thanks for sharing and I really enjoyed watching this video.

***** Wasn't even aware of that. Well, I guess if R32 Skyline GT-Rs can be sold at auction, anything is possible.

[@johnniejohnsonv]

True, R32s are actually completely legal now in US though due to the 25 year law (was launched in '89, so since 2014).. R33s will be here in 2020 legally and R34s in 2024

Its not a commercial vehicle its a utility general all purpose vehicle in Australia although it could be used for a business. Its made by Holden which is generally considered a terrible quality company now and is going out of business killed off by the yank parent company after being subsidised by the federal government here for many years to the tune of 100's of millions of dollars. Its pronounced ute as in utility. Its also not a concept vehicle and has been in production for decades, although you poms probably think its quite novel.

But my Maloo ute is yet to be owned... Driving my SS around makes feel so good listening to the engine as it opens out.. Got twin 2.5in exhaust system, extractors, OTR intake and mafless 300kw tune with sports super low suspension. I want to do it up, like give the engine more acceleration off the mark and redo the interior custom designs. It's only @ 151km on clock so still got a few more yrs left in her.

[@Renny1953]

To be fair- Australia has had V8 utes for 50 years. I have one just like this - only the non supercharged version which still goes like shit of a shovel. Lovely car to drive - cheaper to register and insure becaase it only has two seats. I do 1000 kilometre trips in mine with no fuss at all. Best part is you can pass a bunch of cars in a heartbeat - best power band is between 50 and 100 mph. As for fuel consumption - thrash it and it drinks- cruise it and I regularly get 8.5 litres to the 100 kilometres. I once got 7.4 average driving to Adelaide with a tail wind. Great car. And they are no more.

[@chaoticature]

Damn straight it appeals to the tradies! They love it. If anyone is unaware of it. Here in Australia, quite possibly every one in three 17-45 year old tradesmen/ labourers owns a ute or pickup. Various cheaper models included of course. Ford Aus even have competing models. We even have a championship racing category dedicated to these "utility" vehicles (brutes). They are MASSIVE here! Practical and powerful.

[@ronaldov09]

[@gride5153]

The ute with a V8 concept has been around in Australia for many many years. HSV standard for "Holden Special Vehicles" and was really born out of the V8 race cars. They make these in family sedans as well. The car in the video is the Holden HSV R8 Maloo with 410kW 691Nm. There is now an HSV Maloo GTSR version with 435kW with 740Nm of torque (like it needed more power). We even have Ute racing in Australia. Oh, buy the way, that is a stock vehicle. You should try drifting it - it is insane fun (best to throw a few sand bags in the boot though).

[@shananagans5]

Things like this are great for people that need to carry large things but don't really need off road capability. It would be great for a horse person to carry saddles, hay & stuff. I would love one. I do home projects frequently & it could carry large pieces of wood, paint, the occasional appliance etc. It would also be great to take to the range. Load the back up with guns, ammo, targets etc & open the tailgate for a great place to sit. More fun to drive than a truck & will work fine if you don't need to carry lots of weight or go off road. I am kind of surprised they don't sell these in the US. I think they would sell pretty well. Back in the 70's & 80's there were quite a few ElCaminos & Rancheros running around. They are great for light utility & so much more fun to drive every day than a truck.

[@LeFuseTv]

[@Aust2008]

Very entertaining review Tim; sorry I've only watched it for the first time 14 or so months after you created/uploaded it. I'm an Australian living in Sydney and while I love Porsche, Mercedes, Aston Martin, Ferrari, etc; I'm also very proud of the vehicles designed and built by Holden here in Oz over the past few years, with my favourite being the HSV Senator; which unfortunately they don't rebadge and export to the UK. As for these late model Maloo ute(s) (pronounced 'yoot' Lol.), they always turn heads in Australia and are not only driven by tradespeople. Believe me when I say that quite a few young successful businessmen own and drive these utes around the streets of the Financial Precinct in central Sydney. That's right, guys in expensive suits proudly cruise about in these cars down here!! Hilarious right!? But I have to say, those guys all look pretty freakin' cool. :-) One last thing in case you didn't know and might be interested in; the first utes were created in about 1930 by Ford Automotive for the Australian market following a request for such a vehicle; apparently Henry Ford himself nicknamed them 'Kangaroo Chasers'. Lol.

[@Kompoism]

Saw a blue one the other day at South Mimms services. Paint code of blue was awesome, and whilst we are not used to yutes in the uk, the noise was amazing. Not to mention the bang for buck, god knows how fast it would go if un-restricted!

[@swingstylez]

It's got drink holders in the rear pickup shelf. Great for car parties :)

[@Sandman-bs3if]

Shmee....now you can see why Australians are in mourning over the manufacturing of our own cars ceasing. With a few hundred extra kilos in the rear, even more fun is to be had. Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@tonysmith2360]

Used by builders and surfers back in Australia. There are different back canopies available down under, some higher than the cab providing plenty of room for tools etc. If your not going to drive too fast you could remove the back and put your trail bikes on it, put the lid back on to do 250 kph on the motorway.

[@alexmcandrew3943]

Im in Australia and once in the Winter i saw one of these (or a model below it or something) at a set of traffic lights, he was still spinning his tyres in 4th gear and the sound was amazing, not to say it doesn't happen all the time here in Aus which it does (my neighbour even has one lol) but yeah almost always it's going to be loud once you see one
