Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox automobile The Holden EJ is a motor vehicle produced by General Motors-Holden's in Australia from 1962 to 1963.[1] Introduced in July 1962,[2] the EJ replaced the Holden EK series.[1]
Overview
The styling of the EJ was a radical departure from that of the EK, with a lower roofline, a flatter boot and an absence of fins.[1] Improvements were made to the brakes, front suspension and the Hydra-matic automatic transmission.[1]
A new luxury model, the Holden Premier, made its debut in the EJ series, and featured leather interior, bucket seats, metallic paint, a heater/demister with centre console, and arm rests on all four doors.[1] It was fitted with Hydra-matic 3-speed automatic transmission as standard equipment,[1] which was optional on other EJ series models.[3][4]
Model range
On introduction, the EJ range consisted of four-door sedans in three trim levels and five-door station wagons in two trim levels.[3] A two-door coupe utility and a two-door panel van were added to the range in January 1963.[2] The seven models were marketed as follows:
- Holden Standard Sedan[3]
- Holden Special Sedan[3]
- Holden Premier Sedan[3]
- Holden Standard Station Sedan[3]
- Holden Special Station Sedan[3]
- Holden Utility[4]
- Holden Panel Van[4]

Engines
All EJ models were powered by a Шаблон:Convert inline six-cylinder engine, producing Шаблон:Convert.[2] Since the introduction of the original Holden 48-215 model in 1948, Holdens had been fitted with what was commonly known as the grey motor. The EJ was the last Holden to be equipped with that engine.
Production and replacement
After a production run of 154,811 vehicles,[2] the EJ was replaced by the Holden EH series[5] in August 1963.[6] The 1,000,000th Holden, an EJ Premier, was produced on 26 October 1962.[1]
The EJ was also assembled in New Zealand by GMNZ,[7] and was marketed in South Africa as well.[8]
