Holden Suburban used review | 1998-2001 - Cars Guide
Holden Suburban is a very large 4WD, good towing workhorse and spacious people mover. The Suburban can seat up to nine adults, though a more realistic use is seven adults and two children - nothing else comes close in this designed-for-the-USA giant. A rebadged Chevrolet, the Holden Suburban was only imported from February 1998 until January 2001, though the last of them weren't sold for several months after that. Though it appears gigantic, Holden Suburban is only half a metre longer and 150 mm wider than a Commodore station wagon. On suburban roads it fits comfortably into traffic lanes and is easy to place in traffic. That can be the downfall of the Suburban in tight suburban areas. Suburban can tow 2. 7 tonnes with the 5. 7-litre petrol engine and 3. 4 tonnes with the extra-heavy-duty 6. 5-litre turbodiesel. Suburban uses part time four-wheel drive with a high-low range transfer box. It can be shifted from two-high to four-high and back at speeds of up to 100km/h, but must be stopped for shifts from four-high to four-low and vice versa. Source: www.carsguide.com.au
