Holden to start making Green Cars.


Holden, the company which brought the world the Jackeroo (known better as the Mitsubishi Endenvor from recent years and one of their other SUVs in the past)... They also brought the Pontiac G6 and related autos to that company.

They're now back on the cutting edge designing a complete line of green cars - not just hybrids, but also cars that utilize other forms of energy - hydrogen, electricity, etc...

This should bring the company to the forefront of the market in the next coming years - perhaps even bringing the Holden badge to a road near you! Only change will be, if the government has its idea adopted, is that it would have a green background; however, the company suggested putting the Aussie flag in the background.
This is what happens when a government switches hands and the begin to encourage such development and begin to offer assistance to companies to begin this research. PM Rudd (Australia) has also allowed approximetely A$31 billion to the development of this project and to encouraging Toyota to move one of their largest research campuses from Asia to Australia...

Melborne - the CLEAN Detroit!!!
