Hello all rodeo fans,
new rodeo to be launched next year in mid feb. I have limited info at the moment, but all the friendly holden rep would give me:
- 3L Turbo intercooled common rail diesel
- 120kw, 360nm of torque
- towing capacity upped to 3 tonne
New body design (higher sides such as the hilux)
It will be interesting to see it, but apparently asia has been using this similair vehicle for a while now. It will also be available in the V6
I might be able to get myself a bargain on an RA!! Woohoo

I stopped to have a look at the 3.6L V6 Commodore engine now in the Rodeos back in Sept and the dealer told me then about the new CRD for 2007 model but only the 2.5L – wouldn’t stop talking about diesel this and diesel that, great deals on the current model etc etc etc.
Anyway, I only wanted to take the V6 for a spin but it was a no go - the (
young) dealer said as it was the only one on the floor, it couldn’t leave the yard in case someone else came in for a look when it was out on a road test – you have to wonder sometimes as to their reasoning, so a no sale that day.

I had the misfortune of driving a 2005 rodeo at work. Result was lower back problems and visits to the physio.
Are they going to put decent seats in the new rodeo?
The Rodeo seats even make the Prado feel comfortable.
