On the other hand, both the 2014 Caprice V6 LPG and Caprice V V8 benefit from a substantial $10,000 price cut over the outgoing 2012 models (read our test drive here). While Australian buyers will surely appreciate this move, it also raises some reasonable questions about Holden's previous pricing policy…
The locally made Caprice starts at AU$54,490 with the 3.6-liter LPG-fueled V6 engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, and at AU$59,990 for the Caprice V with a 6.2-liter V8 powerplant paired to a six-speed auto,
Along with the completely new dashboard and interior borrowed from the Commodore VF (sold as the Chevrolet SS in America), the 2014 Caprice V also gains an all-new rear seat entertainment system with remote control, DVD, AUX input and dual channel wireless headphones.
"We think we’ve made a smart investment in our long wheel base models," commented Holden Executive Director of Sales and Marketing, Philip Brook. "Caprice has always been an extremely well designed, well-proportioned large car and the all new interior is particularly important to customers in this segment,” he said.
"Holden has added the features and advanced technology that customers would only expect from prestige brands to Australia’s own large luxury car – and we’ve made Caprice available with an RRP under $60,000 for the first time," he added.
