Holden Efijy


The Holden Efijy is a concept car created in Australia by Holden. It is based around the legendary Holden FJ, the second ever model built by Holden. Since its debut showing at The Australian International Motor Show in 2005, the Holden Efijy has been earning rave reviews, even to the extent that it was named 'Hot Rod of the Year' by a leading American hot rod magazine. Its most recent appearance was in Detroit for the motor show.

The engine used is a Chevrolet 6.0 litre LS2 V8 engine that has been supercharged and modified by Ron Harrop, an ex FJ racer and well respected automotive person in Australia. The engine produces 480 kilowatts (645 bhp) and 775 newton metres (560 ft·lbf) of torque through the rear wheels.
