T2X concept from the 2005 Seoul Motor Show


So far, General Motors has been taking a measured approach with crossover vehicles. The General has recently rolled out the seven-to-eight-seat Lambda-based Saturn Outlook, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave to join its smaller Chevy Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn VUE. Now we're hearing from the folks over at Motor Authority that an even smaller CUV based off of the Opel Corsa could soon be sold at your local Chevy dealer.

European Opels are currently being brought into the US as re-badged and good-looking Saturns, but Chevy's status as the General's volume brand may garner it some of the styling and handling benefits of GM's Euro marque. GM already unveiled the T2X concept in Korea, showing that it has the design resources to make good-looking small CUVs, and some of those styling cues are destined to be used on an Opel Corsa-based CUV, reports Motor Authority. The cute 'ute is rumored to hit our shores as a 2010 model wearing a Bow Tie badge instead of the Saturn stamp. The Chevy version of this small crossover will undoubtedly receive different powertrains than what's offered overseas, and we'd imagine that a mild hybrid mated to a fuel-efficient four-cylinder would result in above average gas mileage.

The resemblance is striking. Front end, head lights, wheels, and are my eyes deceiving me or is that a suicide rear door?

 

Trying to match the CX-7.

 

Looks like the Audi R8 and the Rx-8 got drunk one night in Germany and this is their bastard love child. It does look nice but the resemblance is kinda eerie.

 

LMAO! It's the RX8! But bloated. It even has the smiling mouth. For shame. It even has an X in three letter name!

 

 

LOL. Damn your quick, it wouldn't post so I kept changing it and reposting then they all went through.

 

Looks like an RX-8.

 

Lets all argue about 2 year old news from a bullshit automotive news source!

 

Saw an Acadia on the road the other day and thought "hmmm...GM actually makes something, besides the Corvette, that doesn't appear to have been designed by union plumbers in 1993."

 

Or maybe it was a 3 way between the RX-8, CX-7, and bit of Audi R8...

Hate to admit it, but it looks good if you like the big and husky types...

 

Yeah, Autoblog sucks.

But there's always "www.myrearwingservesasmypenisreplacement.com" for authentic reportage.

 

Does that mean you traded in your ***** in when you got rid of your last car?

 

No. it means I stopped listening to sawed off trolls. Sorry for the confusion.
