GM wants to make more Chevrolets
look like the Corvette
GM's design chief says we're going to see the Corvette inspire styling
on more Chevy models
GM wants to inject a bit
more style into the Chevy lineup by drawing inspiration from the Corvette
Stingray.
Speaking
with Automotive News,
Chevrolet design head Ed Welburn says we’ll soon “be able to see a subtle link
between some of the form vocabulary” when the redesigned Cruze, Malibu and Volt
eventually hit the market.
Although
you can see a bit of Camaro in the current Impala, Welburn says Chevy hasn’t
quite taken advantage of the styling seen on iconic models, such as the Camaro
and Corvette. In particular, we’ll see Corvette-inspired hood lines and
headlights in an effort to give otherwise mainstream cars a competitive edge in
the styling department.
The
first push we’ll see in this direction is the next-generation Volt. Teased last month ahead of its Detroit
debut, the front end already appears to be considerably sharper than the
current Volt.
