GM will be showing the Chevy Orlando concept at the Paris Motor Car Show next month. The Chevy Orlando is a 7 seat crossover turbodeisel. The Chevrolet concept rides on the same chassis as the upcoming Chevy Cruze. The Chevy Orlando and the Chevy Tacuma prototypes appear to be the same car. A substantial split grille dominates the front end, along with headlights that sweep back onto the front fender.
Implications - This concept car differs from many others in that its design and technological attributes do not seem so outrageous that this car will never be built. The appeal of this car is the possibility that it will actually be made.
