Rumble through the jungle | Herald Sun:

"But our love affair with the working truck is nothing compared to the attention the new Holden Colorado is getting on the streets of Thailand's biggest northern city, Chiang Mai.

We're in Thailand to drive the new Colorado because that's where they're built. In fact most of the utility vehicles sold in Australia - Toyota HiLux, Nissan Navara, Mitsubishi Triton, Ford Ranger, Mazda BT-50 - are built here. Thailand is currently the 14th biggest car-making nation and is on track to make the top 10 within three years.

In Thailand, light commercials such as the Colorado and HiLux account for more than six out of 10 new vehicle sales. In Australia, they account for 14  (and growing) of the market"
