Technology blogge r Christopher Price has found out that two all-new 2014 models from GM are coming, thanks to doing some digging around OnStar’s website.
Price found out that 2014 will bring about a Cadillac ELR, the long rumored Cadillac version of the Chevrolet Volt. Chevrolet will also apparently get a car dubbed the “SS Performance”, supposedly the new sports sedan based on the Holden Commodore. The new RWD Zeta sedan should be a wonderful car, but surely GM could have come up with a better name than “SS Performance”. Wouldn’t “Caprice” suffice?

- Lou_BC Actuality a very reasonable question.

- Lou_BC A pickup for most people would be a safe used car bet. Hard use/ abuse is relatively easy to spot and most people do not come close to using their full capabilities.
- Lorenzo People don't want EVs, they want inexpensive vehicles. EVs are not that. To paraphrase the philosopher Yogi Berra: If people don't wanna buy 'em, how you gonna stop 'em?
- Ras815 Ok, you weren't kidding. That rear pillar window trick is freakin' awesome. Even in 2024.

I saw a LHD Holden Caprice badged as a Chevrolet Caprice Impala SS at Holden's Adelaide plant the other day- could it be this car? It looked like a standard spec Caprice, maybe with hi-po underpinnings?
I'm sure it won't be called SS performance as that is as lame as they come for names. ELR is bad enough. Whats next the LSD?
