FactHolden's second-generation Apollo wasn't really a Holden — it was a rebadged Toyota Camry XV10, the product of a 1990s deal that had rivals sharing each other's cars.
The second generation of the Holden Apollo paralleled the Toyota Camry XV10, recoded as the JM (released in March 1993) and the updated JP (September 1995), with minor cosmetic differences in the grille, lights and trim from the Toyota. Production ceased in late 1996, although enough cars remained until the replacement Holden Vectra arrived in mid-1997 (the Apollo was replaced in June 1997); it was produced at Toyota's Port Melbourne plant until 1994 and then at Altona. Offered as a 4-door sedan and a 5-door estate, front-engine, front-wheel-drive. The page gives no engine or power figures, so none are entered.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

This Holden isn't really a Holden: a government push to make Australia's car industry more efficient paired Holden with Toyota, and the Apollo rolled out as a badge-engineered Toyota Camry.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
