I cannot decide if i like it or if it looks tacky and cheap. It has very korean panels to it. I hope it doesnt feel cheap especially on the interior like the current truck.

 

I agree.. The concept looked amazing. This one is just too toned down

 

Bring it here. Looks pretty nice. Would have to see in person, but if MPG is improved, I may be interested in trading my present Colorado.

 

This truck is the GMI 700, Thailand built...no idea if this is coming stateside. US suppliers are quoting a new C31XXN, which supposedly is the Colorado replacement or the US. Again, I do not know if it is a tweak of the 700 or an all new truck.

 

Generally, I like the truck, but, it needs to have a more 'truck'-style headlights to it. The Asian truck market is ok with having a car look to it, but, thats because thats what their trucks are...cars with boxes essentially.
I like the big sqaure GMT-900 styled rear tails, but, the front looks far too Nissan or Toyota for me....maybe it will grow on me (or maybe I just love my s-series trucks too much, lol)

 

Agreed. it's only halfway there..design-wise for me..

 

Whatever came of that GM statement some time back that next-gen GM trucks would be Camaro-inspired in their designs?

 

This is the "AWD" with a transverse front engine and front drive in concert with a solid, live rear axle?

 

I very much dislike the fact that we here in the U.S. are a 2nd tier market (an also ran?, a non-priority?) when it comes to new products from GM. It seems we have to "settle" for products that have either been elsewhere for two to three years already, or we helplessly watch other countries get a variety of new products that we ourselves would like but are destined to miss. The only exception that readily comes to mind being the Volt, which I hope to someday have. I am sure others on this forum will rally to GMs defense and list several other models that we have/will get first. But I hold firm to my conviction.

Why are so many new models "Missing In Action" for the U.S.? Are we not a large enough market?

As for a new Colorado, I would like to have an opportunity to price one and purchase it here in the U.S; at least have a choice in the matter.

 

I think GM is rolling vehicles out in other countries to ensure all the bugs are worked out before bringing here.

 

Looks like something from the eighties...

 

Looks pretty good.

As long as a "small" or "mid sized" truck has 1/3 the incentives, gets within a couple of mpg of a full size truck, and costs comparable to a full size truck, it will never sell in numbers in the US.

Build a basic, 5 exterior color, air conditioned, 1 engine/2 trans choice/1 interior/base radio truck with dealer upgrades for wheels/sound systems. Price it $5k lower than the base full size truck. You'll sell all you care to build.

First time buyers, economy buyers, teenagers, basic transportation buyers will snap it up.

 

Overall I like it.

Though not too sure about the "dead space" between the headlights and bumper. Looks like the designers couldn't figure out what to do, and gave up.

Even though that same "gap" seemed to have worked better on the concept.

Maybe daytime running LEDs would help in the slot.

The profile reminds me of the current Toyota Tacoma.

 

I've said it before but that is hot. I don't get why it can't be produced just like this concept?

 

bring over the Ute (El Camino) more MPG,more power,.........looks better . Silverado can cover everything else.

 

If they don't bring this here, then they do not care at all about the truck market in general. CAFE should make this thing almost mandatory here. LOL

 

Too bad i just bought a nissan frontier,the chevy looks nice

 

Maybe its just me but those don't look like 20 inch wheels. More like 18's if I had to guess. Maybe its the picture, but I don't think so.

OOOPS, I see it says it LOST 20 inch wheels. My bad.

 

I must say, it is definitely a more stylish truck than anything else on the American market. But, like a couple others here, I also think the front end is a little too car-like. I'm sure it's to help lower drag coefficient while staying stylish, but trucks also need to look like trucks.

Overall, I do like the design, and I really hope GM brings it here and prices it right. Pricing the entry Silverado so low and the mid-range Colorado so high is what's been killing it.

 

The tail lights remind me of a Dodge Dakota

At least they took the least ugly part of the Dakota...

 

To Toyotaesq!!!!---NO THANKS!!---Bring on the ute/El Camino!!!

 

that should be sold not only in Asia and USA but in Europe too. All Asian manufacturers sell their small pick-ups here.

 

It looks like a Toyota in that profile. Blech.

 

I agree 100%. Hideous!! What happened to your designers GM??

 

not sure. maybe ill have to see a higher trim model? but the interior looks like a whole lot of plastic...

 

It looks like a cross between the Silverado and the Equinox. Not too bad looking.

 

Wow, it sure lost alot from the Concept!

 

Looks the same to me minus the irrelevant plastic ad ons

 

Why does GM think that EVERY Chevy has to look exactly the same from the front? That looks like a Cruze Pickup truck.

 

Yeah sure it does LOL

 

Equinox:

Traverse:

See a pattern here? :lmao:
