2008 HOLDEN SPORTSWAGON The Sportwagon maintains the same length as the sedan but still manages to be one of the most spacious wagons on the market. The tailgate cuts into the roofline to allow easy access when parked against walls and other cars. The Sportwagon needs just 268mm of clearance to swing the tailgate open, meaning that hectares of room aren't required to load the shopping or the kid's soccer gear. The general driving feel of this model was quite positive. You would be hard pressed to realise that you were in fact driving a station wagon. Even during a wet part of the day when the heavens opened, this vehicle remained firmly planted to the road, without even a hint of the regular light-end feel of a station wagon. Safety features such as Electronic Stability Control, dual stage front driver and passenger airbags, side impact airbags for driver and front passenger and side curtain airbags are all standard fitment across the range. All in all, Holden's new Sportwagon is really a stellar family car. The increase of head room and radical styling will ensure it sings the right tune.
