Our eyes are focused on the Geneva Motor Show, but another show has opened its doors, Melbourne Auto Show. The national brand, Holden has unveiled a coupé to celebrate its 60th anniversary.
The concept car features an aggressive look thanks to its enlarged wheel arches, huge 21in wheels, large air intakes at the front and an air diffuser at the rear end. The coupé is powered by a 6.0-litre unit whose power remains unknown. The engine comes with Active Fuel Management, calibrated for E85 Ethanol fuel and it’s hooked up to a 6-speed manual transmission.
On the inside, the Coupe 60 is roomy enough for four people in an ambiance that combines black leather, red stitching and carbon-fiber. The seats made of carbon-fiber comes with a mix of suede and leather upholstery. All seats feature four-point harness to hold passengers in it. However, the dashboard structure looks two step away from production. The Coupe 60 is a concept car that seems to be ready for production.
At this stage, Holden has no plan to put the Coupe 60 into production, but a return of the Monaro based on this Coupe 60 would be a great news.
