Future Buick Small Car Based On Aveo
GM and Buick are working on a small car for the stereotyped large car maker based off the Chevrolet Aveo. Buick’s little car is, for now, being referred to as Agile in South America. But has been seen with the “Excelle” name plate at car shows in concept form (pictured below). Buick’s version of the Aveo will be the smallest car ever produced by the American auto maker. It’s expected to have a small engine (obviously), come in sedan and hatchback form, and reach upwards of 40 MPG.
The last time Buick attempted to cross over to another platform it was with the now deceased Saturn Vue. Critics of this design combination dubbed it “Vuick” – the plan never made it past concept stages.
Buick executives may release more information later this week or by the end of spring. The Chevrolet Aveo is produced at GM’s Orion Township, Michigan, plant. Buick’s small car will most likely also be constructed there. GM has recently been revamping the plant in order to prepare for it for assembly of its new generation small cars.
