The 2 that were meant to go ahead (the TT36 Torana & the VE Coupe 60) were killed off because of the GFC & the planned closing down of Holden.

Others like the Ejigy & the old Hurricane were just radical concepts, but they paid for themselves many times over in the publicity they received

There were plenty of others. Didn't they do an electric commodore around VT days as well? Or was it hybrid?
