The HSV Coupe4 was a groundbreaking model introduced by Holden Special Vehicles in 2004. Based on the Holden Monaro platform, it was the first all-wheel-drive coupe built in Australia. Combining the aggressive styling of HSV with the advanced AWD system from the Holden Adventra, the Coupe4 offered enhanced handling, traction, and performance compared to its rear-wheel-drive siblings. Powered by HSV’s V8 engine and limited in production, the Coupe4 became a unique blend of muscle car and grand tourer, making it a rare and collectible piece of HSV history.
