Surfeit of SUVS

The Equinox and its bigger Acadia sibling represent the 16th and 17th new vehicles that are part of Holden’s plan to introduce 24 new models by 2020. They’ll join the Trailblazer and Trax to broaden the SUV offering to four, with other AWD choices in the shape of the Colorado ute and the forthcoming Commodore Sports Tourer. The days of relying on Commodore to do the heavy lifting are over. “We’re no longer putting all our eggs in one basket,” said a Holden spokesman.
