Chevrolet T2X Concept

Advertisement

GM Daewoo Design Center has been rolling out nice vehicles lately, like the Chevrolet S3X SUV Concept. They’ve also recently developed a crossover SUV-coupe vehicle called the Chevrolet T2X concept.

The Chevrolet T2X Concept cross-over SUV is targetted at those in their 20s-30s who are looking for a sporty vehicle but also want the load space and off-road ability of an SUV. The T2X actually shares it’s platform with the Chevrolet S3X Concept platform. The S3X is set to debut as a production car as the Chevrolet Captiva at the Geneva Motor Show in 2006.

Looks very sleek, yet masculine to me, though I don’t like the rear windscreen very much. Rear visibility would be totally horrendous, I think. The car lacks B-pillars, so the rear doors are hinged at the back of the car.

Not bad, I like the design though the front needs abit getting used to. SUV-coupe crossovers seem to be the trend these days, with the upcoming BMW X6 and the Mazda CX-7 as examples. GM Daewoo’s design center is getting better! I think they have the best designs to ever be produced by Koreans EVAR!

    sleek & elegant interior design but i don’t like the exterior much with coupe concept though. But it does overall xtreme & radical korean design variant

    The interior , especially the dashboard is just perfecto! But I don’t have a clue of the center console’s gadgets ( gear shift ?? ) Coupled with those huge wheel , it looked quite menacing.

    Beautiful car .Proton should take a look to see if there will be upcoming
    cross suv or 4wd models.

    it’s look like the bigger version of Chevrolet Aveo. is it 2006 Chevrolet Aveo 4×4?

    The front is quite appealing but I have to agree with Paul on the rear visibility which would be disastrous to use while exiting a parking space. For a 4X4, it sure looks cramped in the interior for the rear passengers. If this car looked like the Mazda CX-7 it would be a total chick magnet!

    very odd proportions. doesnt it somehow make rims, front headlamps, rear clusters et al look HUGE. weird.

    (the saab in question is i think a 9-X? shares platform wtih a subaru so unless its c omplex arrangement no ones aware of, i dont think its got nothing to do with a chevy)
