Motoring website CarAdvice.com.au is reporting that there are fewer than 500 new Holden vehicles remaining for sale on dealership forecourts in Australia.

The website believes that Holden Australia has asked its dealers to report all remaining new vehicles as sold by the end of the October so it can close the books before the brand winds up.

CarAdvice is reporting that its dealer sources are saying there are fewer than 500 new vehicles left in the network, and that more than 50% of dealerships have removed their Holden signage, and have closed showrooms or taken on new brand franchises.

According to CarAdvice, it received an internal bulletin which showed Holden dealers were able to offer large discounts on new vehicles from as low as $7500 on all new Commodore models to as high as $17,000 on a new Holden Acadia LTZ-V.
