  • Pictured: All-New Chevy Aveo Interior Uncovered
    by
    Sep 21st, 2010

    It wasn’t even two weeks that Chevrolet uncloacked the production version of the all-new 2012 Aveo. At that time, however, the bow tie brand only showed us a few studio shots of the exterior – leaving the interior of the new Gamma II-based subcompact to our imagination. As such, it goes without saying that we’re really excited to finally see a few photos of the car’s cabin – thanks to a promotional video of which the folks over at CarScoop have taken snapshots.

    Opel has announced pricing for its Astra Sports Tourer, which will be present at the upcoming Paris Motor Show from October 2-17. The Tourer, which Opel describes as beautiful, athletic, practical, eco-friendly, and affordable, is essentially a wagon version of the Astra 5-door hatch.

  • More Hot Hatch-ness: Vauxhall Reveals GTC Concept Before Paris
    by
    Sep 9th, 2010

    To put it honestly, hatchbacks are in Europe are to what full-sized pickups are in the United States: they’re everywhere. The market is extremely competitive and are more or less a cultural phenomenon. This being the case, it comes as no surprise that General Motors is showing off yet another hatchback at the upcoming Paris Motor Show. This time, it’s the Vauxhall GTC Concept. Continue reading.

  • Breaking: 2011 Chevy Aveo5 Revealed Before Paris

    Sep 8th, 2010

    If you’re  fixing to buy a Ford Fiesta, hold off for just a little bit. By next year, you could be driving the all-new Chevrolet Aveo instead. The all-new hatch, which will be The General’s second truly global vehicle following the Cruze, will be on display at the Paris Motor Show, joining the Chevy Orlando MPV and Cruze hatch. The trifecta of hatchbacks (along with a possible wildcard entry from the Chevy Spark) will surely help to quench Europe’s thirst for wagon/hatchback vehicles. Today, General Motors released the first official photos of the tiny hatch – here’s what we’ve gleamed so far. Continue Reading.

  • Breaking: Chevy Cruze Hatch Shows Its Face

    Sep 3rd, 2010

    Bonjour Belle. Before its live debut at the Paris Motor Show on September 30th, Chevrolet has officially released photos of its latest model destined for European launch – the Cruze hatchback. Since we’ve speculated about the model’s arrival in the last few weeks, this news does not come as much of a shocker – but it doesn’t ice down the fact that this C-segment wagon looks hot. White hot.

  • Report: Chevrolet Cruze Hatch To Bow At Paris Along With Three Other All-New Models

    It looks like the upcoming Paris Motor Show will be quite a big deal for General Motors. In 2008, The General used the European car show to introduced the all-new Chevrolet Spark and Orlando MPV Concept. Both vehicles garnered a fair share of positive attention and praise. This year, The General is expected to unveil not two, but four all-new models. The model that seems to stand out above the rest is a hatch variant of the already-popular Chevrolet Cruze.
    The Cruze hatch could match up very will against other compact hatches, such as the 2011 Ford Focus, Mazda3, Hyundai I30, and Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback here in the States… but that’s only if it makes it here. Unfortunately, the variant has not been confirmed at all, let alone for the U.S. If you’re a fan of hatches (like our own Alex Luft), the news may be somewhat disheartening. The hatch is rumored to have been developed by GM Holden in Australia. Continue reading.

  • Spied: 2012 Opel Zafira In Rüsselsheim, Germany
    by
    May 16th, 2010

    Six months before its introduction at the Paris Motor Show, the new Opel Zafira has been caught at the Opel headquarters in Rüsselsheim, Germany. Styling is expected to follow in the footsteps of the new Insignia, Astra, and Meriva. These spy shots show that the rear doors are still hinged in the front as opposed to the smaller Meriva’s back-hinged doors, or the sliding doors of the Ford Grand C-Max. Furthermore, the driver and front passenger sides feature a split A-Pillar and a triangle-shaped window.

    The interior follows the blueprint of the Insignia and Astra, with a new center console and a high-placed screen. Also coming from the Insignia is a camera mounted in the rear view mirror that monitors road markings and traffic signs.

    The new Opel Zafira will be based on GM’s global Delta II platform and will share many mechanical components with the Chevrolet Orlando. Expect a range of gasoline and diesel direct-injected Ecotecs, with a 2010 Paris Motor Show introduction in October and a 2011 sale date. A Vauxhall version will most likely follow, if not coincide with that of the Opel.
