The Holden features in SupercarXtra Magazine issue #125, celebrating the iconic cars of the Australian Touring Car Championship/Supercars.

Holden bows out of Australian touring cars at the end of 2022, bringing to an end a storied run of success dating back to the sport’s formative years.

Holden was represented on the grid for the first Australian Touring Car Championship event in 1960 and has been a mainstay ever since, with the Monaro, Torana and Commodore all achieving success across various eras of the championship.

SupercarXtra Magazine issue #125 is a celebration of the iconic cars of the Australian Touring Car Championship/Supercars.
