It isn’t the Brady Bunch Wagon – 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon

In Europe, the station wagon is one of the coolest rides you can buy like the Mercedes E series and BMW 5 series wagons. In North America it’s a whole different story, for some reason the wagon still echoes it’s the ultimate in un-coolness and totally laden with its traumatizing Brady bunch stereotypes. So what is Cadillac going to do with a CTS Wagon?

 

The 2010 CTS Sport Wagon is changing the way Americans think about the old station wagon. From the front it looks no different than the normal CTS, but when you look at the rear you will see its differences like its 26 LED powered tail lights that extend almost the entire rear end. Every line, every crevice, every nuance has a purpose. It screams speed. It yells high class. And it’s got good fuel economy to boot. And for those planning on packing a lot of stuff into it, it has a whole lot of usable space.

What do  ya think about this?

I Prefer The Cobalt Name Instead of Cruze

General Motors is finally stepping up to the plate with a better look at its new small car, the Chevy Cruze, which is supposed to replace the Cobalt around mid-2010.

These photos have been released ahead of the Cruze’s live showing in October at the Paris Auto show. The car’s appearance is based heavily Chevy’s new global design language, which has shown up recently on the Malibu sedan and Traverse crossover.

The Cruze bosts the new grille treatment of current chevy vehicles, with wrap-around headlights. Chevy says the Cruze is roomier than its competitors with more length and width, and the wheels jut out a bit from the body. The car is expected to be able to get more than 40 mpg. And if they can do that without it being a slug I will definitely buy one.

They gave the car a dual cockpit layout interior that has also shown up on recent redesigns, and was inspired by 1960s Corvettes.

The Cruze lgoes one sale in Europe next March. It will get it’s power from two four-cylinder engines, and a new 2.0-liter turbodiesel.

The U.S. Cruze is expected to get four-cylinder and turbo power plants from GM’s global offerings. It will be built in Lordstown, Ohio plant.

GM is betting hard that the Cruze will be a hit with consumers, as it’s replacing a good platform, the Chevy Cobalt, which posted sales of more than 200,000 annually. The Cobalt was launched in latter part of 2004.

The Cruze’s competitors will the like of the Honda Civic, Ford Focus and Volkswagen Jetta.

I wonder if Tom knows GM named a car after him?

It was more or less a GTO with a camaro shell plastered on top of the GTO’s chassis. But enough about Transformers because that is so old now, let’s take a gander at the Chevy Camaro SS.
