2017 HSV prototypes spied fully uncovered in Melbourne

This is it, folks. Photos of HSV’s last ever Commodore-based range undisguised.

Thanks to the sleuth work of one reader we’ve been treated to a peek at HSV’s 2017 range ahead of its official reveal this year.

Steve Mitres spotted the cars today at about 1:30pm being unloaded from a transporter into HSV’s headquarters in Clayton, Victoria.

Finished in gunmetal grey, a brand new Y-spoke wheel design draws heavily on, and may even be shared with, the items worn by the previous generation Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.

HSV also has tweaked the cars’ rear bumpers. The old quad-style exhaust tips now swapped for a dual-diamond setup.

Moving down the car, it’s clear the Gen F2’s side skirts have been carried over, but those front fenders now sport a horizontal vent design.

They’ll also flank a newly designed front bar which can’t be seen in the spy pics.

MOTOR reached out to HSV for comment but had not been able to get through to a spokesperson at time of press.

Further details on these incoming HSVs are scarce, but we can confidently say they’ll be powered by a GM supercharged engine with the LS3 bowing out with the Gen F2.
