Ummm those appear to be conflicting stories... one says it will be the Aveo replacement, and the second says that it will be a delta-based car. Which is it?!? I assume the first story is correct (Aveo at Lordstown, Cobalt in Mexico).

Overall I think that it's good news because the Aveo will be US made but bad news because the Cobalt won't be.

And what's this news about a midsize RWD car? Alpha? Seems odd to build a subcompat FWD and midsize RWD in the same plant, no? Too bad they wouldn't send the RWD to another plant, to share the love! Moraine could use something!
