I know GM still wants America to buy giant vehicles, (SUVs -> Xovers) but, if Saturn can sell so many Vues, imagine how many Chevy would sell.
The VUE is a Theta - like the Equinox and Torrent. The new Vue is Theta II. The next Equinox will be also (but long wheelbase) and GMC is getting a Theta called "Terrain." The Cadillac SRX replacement (based on the is on a mix of Theta and Sigma I've seen called "Theta Premium."

So, Theta is getting around, but I think, as in the first generations, it will remain the only short wheelbase Theta.
