Holden Corporate Affairs Manager Andrea Matthews said " Holden will release details of the new VE UTE on August 22, but not the wagon."

So no word on the wagon.It would almost be convenient for Holden if the wagon was to arrive at the same time as Orion.

I have been told that the VE Wagon is an awesome looking bit of gear from someone who HAS seen it, also available with SV6 and SS models it could be a big deal.

As much as I hate to say it, that wagon actually looks good, dare I say even better than the sedan!

That wagon looks excellent. If Holden actually release something like that, they'll have a hot wagon.

I will say that producing a vehicle that looks better than the sedan is not hard...when I took a bio not long ago, I produced something more attractive than the sedan.
