Interior looks promising, exterior is too "concept" too judge for a vehicle coming from GM. The large snout does not help, though. Name is hopeless, why not "Chevrolet Pompano Beach"?

I would get it. I like the design. Can't wait to see what it actually will look like.

The concept version looks amazing as always, too bad the production versions never look that good.

The interior most likely will. It's almost exactly like the Cruze shots have shown.

The way I see it, this is the next HHR. Only stands to reason given GM's comments about abandoning the retro look for the next-gen HHR and this riding on Delta II.

But how they get 7 seats in that is beyond me. Five sure, but seven! I don't see it.

If this is the size/price of the HHR we'd probably get one as our next car. My wife has a Cobalt and loves it but we'll need something with more room in the back. I was hoping for a wagon version of the Cruze but this will do nicely.

3 rows of seats though? Seems like it wouldn't be big enough. I'd rather have more cargo space.

I agree. I like the HHR, but not many people are fond of the retro styling.

Therefore, Chevy should have two wagons. A Retro HHR and a contemporary Orlando. Similar with how Jeep has the feminine Compass and the masculine Patriot.
