Last Aussie Commodore from HSV was this Light My Fire GTSR W1. Going straight to the company's pool room.

Three decades of Aussie muscle car-manufacture have drawn to a close: Holden Special Vehicles (HSV) has completed build of its last-ever Australian Commodore-based vehicle, a GTSR W1 finished in a colour called Light My Fire.

The car, build number 275/275, has been officially certified as HSV's last Commodore and will be retained by the company for posterity, although total build of the GTSR W1 actually totals 298. The extra 23 cars are a New Zealand allocation.

"For all at HSV, this is a time for great reflection on what the company has been able to achieve to date," says managing director Tim Jackson. "Any success we've enjoyed has been directly attributable to our passionate staff, our dedicated dealer body and of course our loyal fans who have helped build this brand through its 30-year history."

SUPPLIED From Commodore to Colorado: HSV's next new model is the SportsCat pickup truck.

To the end of 2017, HSV has built 90,114 vehicles, the majority of them Commodore-based variants. It reached 5000 vehicles in 1991, 50,000 in 2006 and 75,000 in 2013.

HSV is leaving not only Aussie muscle cars but also its old factory in Clayton, Victoria behind. It has moved to a new facility in Clayton South as it embarks on new projects.

The short-term future for HSV belongs to pickup trucks: the company has already revealed a new range of models for 2018, including the Colorado SportsCat, a heavily modified version of Holden's one-tonne pickup truck, and a "remanufactured" right-hand drive version of the US-market Silverado truck.

Unlike the SportsCat, Silverado will not not be called an HSV: it will retain its Chevrolet branding.

HSV will also remanufacture and market a right-hand drive version of the Camaro sports car, also as a Chevrolet.
