This came as a surprise to us when we got this via mail. A member of the Australian LS1 and Holden Forums snapped two shots of the Holden VE Commodore Wagon and the HSV Ute Maloo during a product presentation. There was no official word regarding Holden's development on the new wagon, but these shots confirm the speculations. The second shot shows us the upcoming HSV Ute Maloo. Both shots are the real deal.
The VE Wagon will be powered by the same engines as its four-door sibling: a 3.6L 255hp V6 and a 6.0L 362hp V8 on the SS model. We have no word whether the wagon will be brought over to North America as a Pontiac G8 Wagon, but if it does, it will make a viable competitor to the Dodge Magnum. HSV, Holden's high-performance division, is prepping for the unveiling of the new HSV Ute Maloo. Based on the VE Ute, the Maloo packs a 6.0L 411hp LS2 V8 and adds an aggressive HSV bodykit.
Both models are speculated to debut at the upcoming Sydney International Motor Show in October. Continue reading to view an image of the HSV Maloo.

If only the stayed away from the Astra rear end... The rest of it looks perfect but they just need to work on the rear end a bit... They should have visited streetwagons.com to see what they thought of it...
Overall i can't wait till this gets released though, especially if that is the official look of it too. If they can slightly change the rear end i really think they will be on a BIG winner with this one.
i think streetwagons.com will be talking about this one for awhile now as its been a topic in waiting and im sure it will become a very popular model and a good starting point for future commodore wagons,,i know that holden engineers have to work on the rear of the body and have a higher rear roof line in future models
