STRUGGLING US motoring giant General Motors has axed plans to sell the Australian-made Pontiac G8 ST sports truck, a vehicle based on the popular Holden ute.
The car was to be built at GM's plant at Elizabeth in South Australia and shipped to the American market.
However, Pontiac spokesman, Jim Hopson, said GM would continue to produce Pontiac sedans for the US market from the Elizabeth plant, after impressive sales in the US.
