When will the 2013 Malibu's hit the lots?

FenwickHockey65 · 09-06-2013, 11:16 PM

...now?

2014s are due pretty soon. They just wrapped up some stuff with the new 2.5L.

AWSME SS · 09-06-2013, 11:19 PM

Today, the new 2014 Escalade was such a comfortable ride. Great job GM!

In any case, what Reuss is talking about is starting to sound less like a specific product but more a new modular platform that will be utilized across all brands.

Well, it is about time for Voltec 2.0 to make an appearance, right?

KMPrenger · 09-07-2013, 03:06 PM

I think what you said before about a new 2nd gen concept Volt riding on a new lighter modular platform sounds pretty reasonable to me.

But isn't that was Alpha is....a lighter modular platform??

I don't think what will be shown will be a new model either (aside from the Colorado/Canyon which sounds like it may get a diesel engine option).

Bhobbs · 09-07-2013, 05:40 PM

Something new hot and dramatic at the LA Auto Show?

Alpha based Chevelle would be new, hot and dramatic...

I think they are going to introduce a FRS/BRZ fighter...something for a younger generation. That is affordable and fun to drive.
