The Holden Monaro ( Mon-AH-ro) is a car that was manufactured by General Motors' Australian division Holden. It has a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and was produced with a two-door coupé body from 1968 to 1976 and again from 2001 to 2006 and with a four-door sedan body from 1973 to 1979. Three generations of the Monaro coupe have been produced, the first covering the HK, HT, and HG series from 1968 to 1971, the second covering the HQ, HJ, HX, and HZ series from 1971 to 1979, and the third covering the VX, VY, and VZ series from 2001 to 2006. The first-generation Monaro coupe was also manufactured by General Motors South Africa from 1970 to 1973, using knock-down kits imported from Australia. The third-generation Monaro coupe was manufactured not only for domestic Australian consumption, but also for export, as variously a Chevrolet Lumina Coupe (Middle East), Vauxhall Monaro (UK), or Pontiac GTO-badged vehicle (USA). The third generation was also "remanufactured" in Australia by Holden Special Vehicles (HSV), from 2001 to 2006, marketed in a range of HSV-badged high performance derivatives without application of the Monaro nameplate.
