13 Weird and Wonderful Chinese GM Products

LOWDOWN · 04-04-2010, 09:54 PM

Folks:

These 13 Chinese Market-only (at the moment) Products helped GM sell almost 240,000 vehicles in March 2010, in China. Wouldn't some of these be nice to own/lease over here?

Check 'em out...

LaCrosse Eco-Hybrid: Old model. Replaced by the same vehicle as we have now. Currently one of the best selling cars in its class, outselling the Lexus ES350.

Astra Twin-Top: Astra 3 and 5 door were Saturns...didn't really go anywhere, considering how the interior wasn't too great.

SLS: US market needs it now.

Park Avenue: US market needs it now.

Spark: We're getting the next-gen Spark that looks a ton better than that.

Sail: Our Aveo will be much better.

Excelle: We're getting at least the sedan as a Buick.

Wuling: Uhhh...no thanks.

GL8: Again...Uhhh...no thanks.

Zafira: No idea where to insert that into the lineup. The upcoming Orlando should already fill that segment.

Captiva: Equinox/Terrain.

Excelle: Replaced by current-gen Excelle aka Opel Astra.

Epica: Our Malibu is much better...

Aren't we getting it (and a helluva lot more) in the form of the XTS?

Park Avenue: US market needs it now.
Does it really? Or do we just want it 'cause it goes fast?

The SLS's interior already looks on-par with both competitors.

As for the Park Avenue, I just want a big RWD sedan.

Park Ave is the only really good one on there.
