General Motors is spending the weekend before Pebble Beach’s
concours full-courting the press with background information on
everything from the Cadillac SRX to its new range of concept cars.
These sketches (and notes from GM) are a preview of what GM plans to
roll out at international auto shows in the course of 2003.
Buick Centurion
GM says the 2003 Buick concept takes Buick’s standard for
style, ride and comfort to a new dimension. The crossover vehicle is
said to be a premium-market vehicle that combines the best features
of a sedan and sport-utility vehicle. (pictured above)
 Chevrolet
Cheyenne
The 2003 Chevrolet Cheyenne full-size pickup concept updates the
cargo box area with features designed to appeal both to longtime
truck owners and consumers considering their first truck. Features
include dual bed-access doors, hidden storage bins beneath floor and
sidewalls, and a dual-folding tailgate that opens fully for complete
and quick access to the bed.
 Chevrolet
SS
The 2003 Chevrolet SS concept is a modern interpretation of
Chevy’s Super Sport heritage. A contemporary four-door family
sedan turned sports car, the SS packs rear-wheel drive with a
small-block V-8, high-performance suspension and brakes to match.
 Pontiac
G6
The 2003 Pontiac concept is a four-door, four-passenger car with
the look, feel and attitude of a sports coupe. With its supercharged
V-6 engine and all-wheel-drive capability, the concept is a driving
machine that reaffirms Pontiac’s performance heritage.
 Chevrolet
Journey Concept (GM in Brasil):
The Chevrolet Journey concept developed by GM do Brasil’s
Design & Engineering Center combines the attributes of an SUV
and a station wagon in one compact package. To be introduced at the
Sao Paulo Auto Show this fall, the all-wheel-drive Journey sports a
purposeful, athletic design and features three rows of versatile
seating.
