Autobarn Lowndes Racing has unveiled its new look Holden ZB Commodore for Craig Lowndes ahead of the new Supercars season.
Six-time Bathurst 1000 winner Lowndes took the covers off the newly-built and liveried car courtesy of new title sponsors automotive retailer Autobarn, who have penned a two-year agreement with the team.

Lowndes has hailed the work carried out by Triple Eight to ready the all-new ZB Commodore, which will make its race debut at the Adelaide 500 from March 1-4.
“Tonight is the perfect opportunity to not only reveal our new livery and car, but also to launch our exciting new team in Autobarn Lowndes Racing,” said Lowndes.
“The team have worked hard over the off-season to get the new car ready and the fresh look of the livery on the new body shape is something to be excited about ahead of the season.
“The first race event in Adelaide couldn’t come quick enough for me and the team. I can’t wait to get out there and see what we can do in the car.
“Everyone back at the workshop has been working around the clock to get the car on the track and we couldn’t be happier with what they’ve done.”
The team has also confirmed that Lowndes will once again partner Steven Richards for the upcoming Pirtek Enduro Cup.
Richards has partnered Lowndes for the enduros since 2014 with the pair taking out the Bathurst 1000 in 2015.
“I had no doubts to sign with the team again, I enjoy the endurance season and this gives Craig and me another chance to win another Bathurst 1000 together,” said Richards.
Lowndes is expected to shakedown the new car at Queensland Raceway on February 9.
