GM Releases Images of Future Models
Due to the ever-expanding reach of the internet, images of future GM products shown at a closed-door speech made their way to automotive enthusiast website Jalopnik this week. GM responded by releasing official versions to other media that were miffed to have been scooped. What’s this mean to you? You can get an early glimpse of the upcoming GM products we told you about on Tuesday.
Chevrolet Equinox: Yes, this is the Chevy version of the Saturn Vue. Once again, we’re left waiting to hear about its all-new and supposedly efficient four-cylinder engine before making judgment; otherwise it looks just like the Saturn Vue.
Chevrolet Cruze: Watch out Corolla, Chevy seems to have figured out how to make a compact sedan almost as bland as yours. OK, the new Corolla is slightly less bland, and so is the Cruze. Its 9-mpg-better fuel efficiency over the Cobalt will probably sell this vehicle more than flashy looks would, but why can’t we have both?
Cadillac SRX: Based on the Provoq concept, this too is based on the same platform as the Vue, but upscale. The SRX in this image looks much tamer than the Provoq.
Saab 9-4X: Again, the early look at the production version of the concept is tame. Saab really needed a hit here, and the final grille treatment does not live up to the concept at all.
Future Buick Sedan: We haven’t heard much about this one, but boy does it look nearly identical to the Lexus GS.
Let us know what you think in the comments.
