September 14, 200619 yr No where do they give any indication when (or if) this vehicle will be produced. It certainly looks more 'production car' than 'far out concept'. And the fact its an evolved version of the orginal GM Sequel shows there are pans for the car... but some info however vague about a timeframe would be good. I think they've mentioned 2010 in the past haven't they? I don't see why they would show a very production ready looking concept a full 4 years out from its on sale date though. 192927[/snapback] I don't think they intend to produce this, but it's more meant to push the concept & technology closer to where they could. Even if the fuel cell technology were perfect & ready to go, the skateboard chassis concept would require TONS of testing to ensure that it's safe, reliable, etc, etc. This isn't a new regular vehicle they're working on - it's a whole new concept that changes a lot of the rules when thinking about cars. Such a change requires tests, more tests, rework, and more rework, and takes huge amounts of time. Better that they do that then give us exploding cars.
September 14, 200619 yr not to bash it, but no way is it "petroleum free", uh the tires... the plastics...yeah yes i know what it's supposed to mean... just not clear enough of a headline, surely some nickpicker picked up on it in the news world
September 16, 200619 yr That dashboard looks rather naked and unadorned. 192112[/snapback] oh c'mon, what about the partsbin steering wheel? that we've seen in a milliion other GM cars?
September 16, 200619 yr 192921[/snapback] i think the Sequel is a stunning design. And its a larger vehicle, something folks actually want.
September 16, 200619 yr 192921[/snapback] you could almost chop that image into a Saab also. it could almost take on my Aztek's grille and headlights also and not look too bad. Edited September 16, 200619 yr by regfootball
