New Chevy "Nubira" Spy Pics

[scout62]

Damn, looks fugly like the new Focus. I like my Cavs, sure they had their quirks but what car doesn't? My 97 w/2.2 OHV has even survived sipping a few cups of water through the cold air intake.....

I like the console, looks great.



Look smaller than I thought it would be. It doesent look like a Hyundai in my opinion. Still a very nice quality compact sedan that I hope to see in the US with a Chevy bow tie on it.

IDK -- some of the styling cues may show up still.

Perhaps the pics cited aren't pics of the next Cobalt/Nubira/Lacetti/Optra replacements at all and are mock-ups of the next Saturn/Opel Astra sedan instead? If that's the case, then perhaps the more "outrageous" look of the Cobalt/Lacetti replacement could still show up.

Regardless, the previously posted pics are chops of what little they saw in the original spy pics. Not a bad interpretation, but not the genuine article, certainly.

Excellent Find Evo69! The interior shot also confirms the earlier picture as well.

Nice looking interior if a little derivative. Still years ahead of what we see in the Astra, Cobalt, Lacetti/Nubira/Optra.

A Chevrolet Nubria, God help us, What's next?
Is baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet destined to become, "Sumo wrestling, Sushi, eggrolls and
Daewoo?" Please say it isn't so.

Thanks nadepalma. But I just followed a link in teamkiwiracing's post to a Polish automotive website and they have a bunch of these pics in a thread about the new Nubria from last year August to October. We here at GMI are late to this party lol.

And no mbukukanyau this aint the new Aura. I think there is a thread about the new Opel Insignia that will come here as the new Aura.

Yes, it doesn't look like a Hyundai, but it does remind me of the Mazda 3 sedan.

Are you sure this is really a Chevrolet. Why not next Astra.

Compare those two pictures.

It appears to have a Daewoo version(based on the grill design)... so most likely this is the next GMDAT/Chevy Nubira and not the next Astra.

Daewoo grills...

That Buick Excelle in the Polish thread looks like a carbon copy of the current Civic, esp. the Japanese version... Compare this:

except the mazda looks way better.

[chevrobill]

it may look a little like the 3, but it looks to have a lot more interior room
