Holden is offering even greater value to small car buyers with the introduction of new specification Barina 3 Door and 5 Door models and air conditioning now standard across the range.

The 3 Door effectively replaces the SXi, while the 5 Door replaces the CD.

To mark the introduction of these new models, introductory pricing for Barina 3 Door will be $13,990 and Barina 5 Door $15,990.

Alan Blazevic, Holden's Marketing Manager - Passenger Cars, said buyers had responded enthusiastically to lower prices during a recent dealer campaign.

"Barina sales have grown in the last few months within an extremely competitive small car market," he said.

"The new model specifications ensure Barina remains value-packed while still retaining elements which have made it the driver's choice in this segment."
