Released in August 2001, the Holden WH Series II (WH.II) Statesman and Caprice introduced significantly modified rear suspension and a subtle facelift. The WH.II Statesman and Caprice were fitted with Holden’s ‘Control-Link’ independent rear suspension (IRS) which included toe control links for improved rear grip and tyre wear. In addition, retuned suspension and revised steel belt tyre construction provided improved ride and handling; V8 models were also equipped with a limited slip differential as standard. The Holden WH.II Statesman and Caprice could be identified by their jewelled headlamps with reflectors and clear polycarbonate lenses, new multi-spoke alloy wheel designs, wider chrome window surrounds and new rear badging.
