Take a look at this graphic. It’s the best look at the new Chevrolet Malibu (front and center) and Camaro (to the right).

Obligatory Lotus Content: "We'd do an SUV that is very light, very fast on the track and has outstanding handling," he said. "I'm a bit torn between an SUV and a four-door sports car -- but in the end I can see that the SUV has the bigger market." A track capable SUV doesn't seem like it's that big of a market.

  Lotus and SUV - two words that should NEVER be in the same sentence. First it was Porsche now Lotus? The world is really coming to an end.

  @JMII Meanwhile, Porsche hasn't stopped turning out incredible sports cars, one after the next. Once they stop doing that, then the world really is coming to an end. Since the launch of the Cayenne in 2002, Porsche has introduced: Carrera GT 918 Cayman + its umpteen variants maintain the 911 line + its umpteen variants, including the hardcore GT2 and GT3 variants maintain the Boxster line + its umpteen variants

  @JMII A Lotus Evora got hit by an SUV. Isn't that OK? I agree however that any SUV is the antithesis of a Lotus. It truly is the end days.

An S13 Camaro? My first thought when I saw that silhouette was some sort of new Silvia.

So redesigned Malibu, Cruze, Spark, Camero, and Volt? That's actually a lot for one year. Let's hope they get them all right. GM really can't afford any misses.

  I can't really tell but I think that's a Trax instead of a Spark.

  @jimbo1126 It's definitely not a Trax. The Trax was very recently introduced and wouldn't need a redesign *quite* so soon. Plus, you can see the "reverse-angle" C-pillar, which the Trax doesn't have. It could be a Spark, but I think it's a Sonic hatchback.

  @Kyree Bolt*, perhaps? *At least until Chevy comes to its senses and decides that rhyming names are kinda stupid.

  @James2 I think GM has since stated that it will rename the Bolt, for that exact reason. And unless the timecycle has accelerated considerably, the Bolt---or whatever it'll be called---likely won't be in showrooms until 2017, for the 2018 model year.

  @Kyree Haven't heard anything about a new Sonic, but a new Spark based on the same platform as the new Opel Karl has already been seen pretty much undisguised in South Korea. I'd post a link but I'm not sure about TTAC policies on links in comments and I'm too lazy too find out at the moment.

  @NTGD That's probably our best bet, then.

Tiguan production to be moved to Mexico? How about they redesign it first, because it's tiny, overpriced and uncompetitive...

  Yes, it'll be the next-gen Tiguan, built on the MQB architecture.
