The HSV Grange is a Luxury performance sedan manufactured by HSV with the Australian Automobile company of Holden a subsidiary of General Motors . The car uses a LS2 6.0 Litre Generation Four V8 Engine , which produces 307 kW @ 6000 rpm and 550 nm of Torque @ 4400 rpm. The vehicle is heavily based on the Holden WM Caprice with most of it's mechanics and interior specifications conceded over to the Grange. The rear of the car features a boot lip spoiler that is discretely positioned to give the subtle effects of a sports image yet at the same time keep its luxury appearance. Rear LED break Lights feature within the car for the first time and the newly introduced MRC system (similar to Air Suspension but it contains fluid instead) which has two ride settings (luxury and performance) at the touch of a button. Performance mode noticeably reduces body roll and pitch during cornering, giving the Grange more agility and composure in press-on driving and the luxury option provides the car with a much more softer and smoother ride. Special HSV badges are positioned around certain parts of the car to differentiate it from the Caprice.1

HSV is enthusiastic about it's new pricing strategy and is certain that it will push to attract people into dealerships. The Grange's AU$82,990 price tag is a AU$7000 less than its WL predecessor and a reasonably palatable AU$13,000 more than a regular Caprice.2
