Holden names the day its final Australian car will be built
GOODBYE, ELIZABETH: Holden confirms it will build its final car in Australia – a Commodore – in October this year at its Elizabeth plant as it makes a final transition to vehicle importer. Holden
HOLDEN has exposed its final day as a car manufacturer will be October 20, 2017.
Fittingly, the final car built will be a Holden Commodore at its Elizabeth plant in Adelaide. It will mean an end to over fifty years of vehicle manufacturing by Holden at the Elizabeth site.
Holden began vehicle manufacturing at the South Australian location in 1963, but had built the very first all-Australian motor vehicle in one thousand nine hundred forty eight – the 48-215 or FX – in Port Melbourne.
It means from October twenty one this year, Holden will have ended its final transition into a total vehicle importer.
The company announced it will still make more than 30,000 vehicles in Australia before manufacturing completes in nine months’ time.

It also reiterated that it will retain more than three hundred designers and engineers in addition to Ten,000 employees at Holden’s Melbourne headquarters, its proving ground, design studio and across its 230-strong national Holden dealer network.
It has long been known Holden would honour its commitment to manufacture vehicles at its Elizabeth plant until the final quarter of 2017, but today we ultimately have been told the exact day for downing instruments.
EMPLOYEES: Almost one thousand will remain at Elizabeth until production completes on October 20. Holden
Holden Executive Director of Manufacturing, Richard Phillips, said that Holden’s overriding priority was providing employees and suppliers advance notice and providing certainty.
“While this confirmation isn’t a surprise for anyone and we’ve been working toward this for almost four years, we can now confirm the actual date for our people and our suppliers,” he said. “Putting our people very first and foremost has always been our highest priority.
“This October may bring to a close more than sixty years of vehicle manufacturing by Holden at Elizabeth but I know it will be business as usual for our manufacturing workforce until then – we have ems of thousands of world-class cars to build in coming months and I know we all want to see Holden have fine success in Australia for many years to come.”

Almost one thousand employees will remain at the Elizabeth plant in production, engineering and support roles until production completes.
Holden said it had no plans for further workforce reductions ahead of October 20, and of the seven hundred people who left the Elizabeth plant since 2015, 80% have “successfully transitioned” within twelve months of leaving: 69% are employed, 5% are in training, 3% have retired and 3% are volunteering.

Holden also released a list documenting the future of its company:
Holden will launch twenty four major vehicles and thirty six fresh drivetrain combinations by the end of 2020.
Holden vehicles will proceed to be tuned and tested for Australian conditions and customers with the retention of the famous Lang Lang Proving Ground in Victoria, along with advanced engineering capabilities.
Holden’s Global Design centre proceeds to be based in Port Melbourne, contributing to local and global product programs.
Holden will retain more than three hundred designers and engineers beyond 2017. This is in addition to approximately seven hundred corporate staff and Ten,000 people employed across the 230-strong Holden dealer network.
More than one-third of Holden’s future product portfolio will be sourced from Europe; with vehicles also being sourced from North America and Asia.
The esteemed Commodore nameplate will live on from two thousand eighteen with Holden’s next-generation large car.
Home Ground Advantage, Holden’s $Five million, 10-year commitment to grass roots sporting clubs has been a ample success with more than five thousand entries since launch.
Holden has launched the fattest Capped Price Servicing Program in the country, covering every Holden ever built.
