GM placed a 5 year life expectancy on the current Nox, plus, there was a 5 year plan for the Chinese motors. The plant would have been sitting idle a while longer if the sales of the current Nox continued to drop. Future plans for the new Nox are moving along quicker now due to the gas prices and future development of Hybrids...Nox comes in that category. The plant also builds the Suzuki XL7 which is coming to it's life span end in 2011. No sooner will the new Nox be coming out a new Suzuki will follow shortly after.
