Introduced in 1978 and heavily promoted as Holden's first "World Car", the VB Commodore platform was derived from Opel's Rekord. Three versions of the VB were offered, the SL/E came with a 4.2 Litre V8 and Tri-Matic transmission as standard equipment, with the 3.3 litre straight six or 5.0 litre V8 optional. Additional features included 15-inch alloy wheels, disc brakes all round, and a chrome exhaust. Inside the SL/E had a plush velour trim and cut-pile carpet, a burr walnut dash, air conditioning, power steering, a tachometer, and a Eurovox radio/cassette player with an electric aerial. 95,906 units of the VB Commodore were manufactured during the car's 17 month lifespan, during 1979 the VB became Australia's number 1 selling vehicle. Praised in the media for its value for money and engineering sophistication, it also won the coveted Wheels Car Of The Year Award in 1979.
