HSV MALOO Used Car Review

Maloo means 'thunder' in the Aboriginal language and it was applied to HSV's performance version of the Holden Commodore Ute in 1990. The 'sports coupe with a boot' was fitted with increasingly powerful V8 engines, notably towards the end of its life with models such as the GTS and, lastly, the LSA with a supercharged V8. Production of the Maloo ended along with the Commodore Ute in 2017.

Pros

Cons

  • Excellent dynamics for a ute
  • Brutal performance of supercharged V8; generally great V8s
  • Premium feel to cabin, especially 2013 on
  • Surprisingly comfortable in terms of seats and ride
  • Poor rearward vision
  • Engines had huge appetite for fuel
  • Expensive for a ute
  • Not all Maloos were necessarily better than regular Holden V8 Ute
This is general information and should not be relied on as purchasing advice.
