LEAKED! Lacrosse, Equinox, Cruze, and SRX!

Here...

Click

The only one I even remotely like is the Lacrosse/Invicta (They call it Lucerne). The rest are just... all wrong. I think they may be photoshops.

I'm really under-whelmed by all of them. The Equinox doesn't look as good as I thought it would.

Re: LEAKED! Lacrosse, Equinox, Cruze, and SRX!

So the "Buick sedan" is in reality the next-gen LaCrosse? Looks all right to me.
SRX looks a lot like the Provoq concept, very good.
Cruze looks kickassical, I love that rear end, this will probably end up being my next car.
Equinox looks like an Outlook? WTF? Not bad though.
9-4x is all right...at least it's Saab-like.

Re: LEAKED! Lacrosse, Equinox, Cruze, and SRX!

Cruze is awesome- hope the Europeans love it while we live with the Balt.

As for the ute's- enough already! You're beating a dead horse here GM!!

The Buick is nice, I just think that it'll take awhile before anyone gets interested in it.

Re: LEAKED! Lacrosse, Equinox, Cruze, and SRX!

I'll say that I'm not all that excited about the new designs. The Cruze does look good and is probably the most exciting new design of the bunch.

The Saab just looks bland and uninspired. Many of the European competitors look better.

The Buick looks nice and refined but it is rather unexciting. I can only hope that the interior is stellar. This could become an overall attractive and pleasing car.

The Cadillac SRX looks too much like an offspring of a Vue and a Ford Edge.

The Equinox has a pleasing front end, seems like a Chevy brand design for most new vehicles coming out. It is also very pleasing and likely draw in many folks. It's a safe and conservative design.

Re: LEAKED! Lacrosse, Equinox, Cruze, and SRX!

The hood of the Cruze appears too bulbous. And the Equinox reminds of me of Saturn, too. I see the Enclave or the Acadia in the rear, though.

Re: LEAKED! Lacrosse, Equinox, Cruze, and SRX!

Whoa... exact opposite of what I was expecting. I was really really excited about the SRX, 9-4x, and Invicta or whatever it's called. They all look much worse than I was expecting. The Saab went from beautiful and modern to ugly and typical old saab look. Lacrosse looks terrible, and totally lost it's sculpted look. The Cruze looks really really nice. Which is surprising because that's the one car I didn't really think much of.







I'm mostly disappointed with the 9-4x. That was the first saab I was interested in since.... ever. And they ruined it.

Re: LEAKED! Lacrosse, Equinox, Cruze, and SRX!

The SRX finally looks like a crossover instead of a station wagon.

I like it. Looks like it could be a real hit.

I'm exactly the opposite. The Buick one is the only one I don't particularly care for.

How long until people start crying about the Nox/SRX/9-4 rebadges?

OMGZZZ THE SRX AND EQUINOX LOOK EXACTLY THE SAMEEEEE.



GM did a pretty good job with the platform sharing this time...very few similarities between them.
Heh. I bet we all know what the Pontiac G5 will look like though...

Yes that's the new LaCrosse, but they kept saying "Invicta"
Also Lutz did in fact say that is the Provoq
