I wonder how all those Element owners survive!

Hopefully you are correct and they will try and keep it as close to the concept as well. How long do we ned to wait for this one? 2-5 years?
It wouldn't have even gone 20 miles on batteries if they kept the concept.

For the last time people, the Volt Concept was merely to draw attention to what lay underneath the hood, the E-Flex drivetrain. Most knew from the start that the production Volt would look nothing like the concept.

Toyota wannabe? It's obvious that you haven't even looked at the HUGE difference in technology between the Volt and prius. E-Flex is light years ahead of HSD.

And the 2010 Cadillac SRX debuted as the Cadillac Provoq concept a few years back. The production model looks exactly the same. The production CTS Coupe and CTS Coupe concept looks more or less the same.

Most likely, this will either debut as Cadillac's E-Flex car or a smaller car to slot beneath the CTS.
