Looks suspiciously like a C-HR



Creative innovation is encouraged as long as we're doing exactly what everyone else is doing.

I actually like it too. Looks a helluva lot better than the old trailbrowser.

I thought Lexus/Toyota right when I saw the Blazer. After doing some reading a lot of people are comparison it to the Lexus RX and it does look like a more rounded RX.

From everything I could find, it's yet another hamster driven pull-me powertrain with optional 4 wheel squirrel power.

I think Chevy styling is going downhill fast. Even the Camaro looks like garbage to me and I've thought that since its rebirth in 2010. That's why I'm looking at Mustangs instead of Camaros. IMO Chevy needs to clean house and start with a new design mantra(?) (I can't find the word I'm looking for).

Here's the link where I got the silver photos: https://www.slashgear.com/2019-chevr...know-22535230/

I didn't read the article though so I can't tell you if it's a production model nor can I say why the grilles are different.

I like the nose of the silver camroish one but not the maroon one.

They need a giant motor in there like the SRT8 thing. Rode in one years ago and why you need a 10mpg grocery getter is beyond me but damn was it a ride.

I have met very few people that have been happy driving Chevys, most are kind of apologetic.

[STANG KILLA SS]

ironically he later blew his clutch and had a 3.5 hour tow truck ride home $$$

Your comment is tongue in cheek I'm sure, but I've owned more Chevys than anything and I loved them and never had a problem with them. The whole American car unreliability stigma is overstated. I'll buy another Chevy once they get their styling under control.

Now I drive a Kia as my main source of transportation and they just got second in the JD Power and Associates rankings (fairly meaningless in reality, but still a huge marketing gimmick). Years ago I warned people not to discredit Kia and look how far they've come.

Reliability among brands is much closer than in the past. Except Germany. Those cars still need tool kits.

I remember when Hyundai started selling cars here in the '80s. Those first cars were awful. Now, they are as good as the other cars in their market segment.

Exactly! It's like when people laughed at Soichiro Honda. And he grew his little business into a global powerhouse for automobiles and motorcycles.

People (dumb ones) are still trying to put the TRX-4 down. I saw it last night on Facebook on a GMade group. All I could do was laugh.

And every model looks the same, just different names, same grills, same rounded features. The Blazer use to be a truck, on a full frame, now they've turned it into a car/stationwagon on a unibody.

Looks like a Camaro SUV
