The facelifted VS series Maloo utility was released in April 1995. 173 examples were produced. It featured a 5.0-litre V8 engine still producing 185 Kw. The Series II version was introduced in June 1996 and carried through in its original form to August 1997, during which time 280 examples were produced. The last HSV update of the VS Maloo followed Holden's release of a VS Series III Ute that, for the first time, included a V8 SS version. In 1999, HSV introduced an improved VS III Maloo with a wiring upgrade to support the revised 195 kW V8. The VS III Maloo's legacy is to be the last HSV vehicle to be fitted with the 'original' Holden V8 engine.
