Australia - Holden has released details of the 2011 Holden WM Series II Caprice and the Caprice V-Series.

The Series II update Holden signals the end of the Statesman nameplate. Both vehicles are set to launch this month.

The Series II features a 210kW SIDI V6 direct-injection engine that is coupled to a six-speed Active Select automatic transmission. SIDI V6 engine uses 9.9litres of fuel per 100km.

The V-Series uses 12.3-litres of fuel per 100 kilometers.

Caprice V-Series also offers ‘fuel of the future’ bio-ethanol capability, also known as E85.

The V-Series gets Nappa leather treatment in the interior, Bose sound system, tri-zone climate control, as well as LCD screens in the seats for rear passengers viewing pleasure.
