wow…i think i like it…will be looking to see it on the floor.

Coolness…This would sell better than the Ford Focus hatchback…atleast thats the way I am seeing this cool looking car.

Wow! I am shocked to see anything this good even being indirectly related to GM! What an awesome concept. If they don’t mass produce this thing, then the hope for GM is virtually gone. (They’ll have to hurry up with the new Camaro.)

Home grown rice….

Korean rubbish

it looks very WRC-ish almost like a cobalt and STI and a GTI had a 3 way. the sketchs looks realyl good. very aggressive. i hope thye build it. would probably fit into the cobalt line up well. Give it the Diesel and the 2.0 s/c engine

Looks alright, reminds me too much of a ford focus rally version.

Wow!! Stunning!! Awesome!! In your face, rice burners!!

That thing is fuking sick!

Great but what do they think they are gaining by putting Chevy badges on Daewoos? In the UK and Ireland noone would be buying them if they thought they were American cars anyway

Thats MINT!!!

Wow! If they got rid of those Geezers who think bringing back Donna’s $16,000. Camaro will save GM ..and bring guys like this forward they might have a future beyond fleet sales.

Looks like a civic with some extra flares. Once the engineers get a hand on this it won’t look anything like this. And let’s not forget the impact rules and all.
Plus who over 25 can reallt buy this and not look like an idiot in it.
Bring us something that can happen GM.

It better not be FWD (but I know it will)

This looks like a charecature of a car to me. It looks aggressive and cool, but it looks like a cartoon. Particularly the pic of the black car. Wheel size (and angle!), window to body panel size, just the general aspect ratio of the thing – it looks like a comic book, not a real car.

Go ahead and take some design cues from it (body flares, grill, tail light, spoiler), but I don’t expect to actually ever see a car the truely looks like that.

This is more likely the SEMA version of what will/could actually be retailed.

Looks like it will never see the inside of a US showroom.

Personally, I find the product placement advirtising funny. I hope Kumho paid for it.

I noticed a couple comments mentioning Daewoo. Is this certain, or simply assumptions on the part of nay-sayers? I can’t for the life of me believe they would make a Paris Motor show debut for a Daewoo based concept.

I think this car is gorgeous, but unfortunately about 3 years late. This should be in place of the Cobalt, now.

Jerry- chevy NEEDS ppl under 25 to buy there cars. One could say who under the age of 40 will drive the Camaro?There are alot of us fresh0out-of-college-buyers with disposable income. this could take some sales away from the GTI, WRX, SI. they need to keep it aggressive, Big wheels, big flares, the closer to that sketch the better. if it turns into bigger Aveo then it will be sunk. This is the kind of thinking GM needs, young blood, fresh ideas.

Ewan Kingsbury is a Holden designer, therefore this car was actually designed in Australia.

and not one mention of the see-through a-pillar?

Umm see through a pillars are old news in Europe, plenty of cars have them. This car has crude over the top detailing just like a Caliber and Avenger and Sebring do

190 horse? thats is? WEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAK!!!!!!

diesel… torque is the real story.

But what will the finished production-car look like?

It’ll look like korean dewoo crap when it is released a new Kalos/Aveo hatch. Buy a Punto instead

Calling all wiggers who grew up on Pokémon.

I agree the car looks like a caricature, if they tone it down a bit, I think it would look stylish. I don’t understand what happens between concept car to production model that turn most Chevy cars into blandness.

Toy Yoda…

The accountants get into the mix and pull all of the cool stuff out of the car because it will cost too much.

For some reason GM decided to rebadge Daewoos as Chevys for the european market. They even kept the same model names. I have no idea why anyone would think this was a good idea.

The designer was 25? Hmmm coulda fooled me. I woulda guessed 15. Didn’t he get the “wings/scoops/spoilers/skirts/10 grille openings/clear lens tailighs are OUT” memo?

Guess not.

If you can’t beat them join them, right?

If this had a Japanese badge instead of the bow tie it would be another ugly rice burner. But as this is a GM product, it’s “stunning”.

Are you sure you can tolerate this vehicle domestic lovers? The concept art has it wearing Korean tires! Thats American jobs lost! Quick make a website!

Woohoo! It better be RWD though. But the diesel…my God! Excellent!

That Chevy badge look so out of place.

yes thats what we need small compact cars … this if it goues into production is going to be trimmed down so E M dont worry about it

I like idea of a 190hp diesel in a sports car.

boo boo poo pooo!

Colbalt hatch anyone?

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm idk

Hey wow, a chevy no built for geezers or baby boomers.

Looks like something that could swipe some EVO or WRX sales. Now actually build it, and then actually use a race version to compete in WRC and it would be really cool.

II’m a mid-aged geezer and I like this car. Prefer RWD, but would consider because of the diesel. We need it here as well as Europe.

It looks great. It definitely bears the chevy lines well. It looks extremely serious for a small car. And that 190 horse TDi engine isn’t anything to sneeze at either. Now we’ll just have to see if GM can deliver.

The best application of Chevy’s version of the shield grille I had seen. The bulging fender treatment makes the car look like it is ready for WRC. If only more US models are styled this way then Chevy wouln’t have a problem shifting cars.

Chevy isn’t playing. The new Cobalt SS probably…Looks great
