Ugly. I really don't like small cars...

And it will be coming to the US as the Saturn Meriva, correct??

That is the word on the grapevine, not a bad idea if you think about it, be more affordable and fuel efficient then the alternative, which is good in the current market

I'm gonna reserve judgement until I see the whole thing. That shape really doesn't turn me on though.

 

[KIDDIESEL79]

Is this sub-Corsa or nothing like it?

 

[Cdesign]

looks like a rolling checkerboard to me.

It'd be even sweeter if they stuck E-Flex into it. Think of the MPGs you could get out of that.

I am with you on that one, though I would also be happy with some of those diesel options the Europeans get

 

[crooner214]

I hate those taillights. This design is a complete failure!



(just kidding, in case you couldn't tell)

We should petition GM to do away with all camo on test vehicles like they did for the Camaro

Yeah...but then there'd be massive overexposure and they'd have to MCE the cars before they even went into production.

I know, I am just dying to see more details of the car though, I know it will never happen, but it would be nice. I would love to see some shots of the interior and the headlights and tail lights etc.

A nice people hauler, run-about car that'll fit nicely into Saturn.

Hope is does not have the issues of the Vue and the Outlook, which are a bit porky.

 

[prowlerjc]

Is that a Mazda5 competitor? I like the mini-minivan concept.

No it isnt!! Meriva is smaller !!
A Mazda 5 competitor would be the DELTA based New Zafira.

If u wanna see an unspied one look to the Meriva Concept at Genf!!

 

[Andonis]

you will find some very familiar lines on the production model!!!
course im talking about the concept meriva

just wait and see
