With automakers replacing icon names with crossovers, & bastardizing them with meh platforms & ugly bodys I have thought of a brilliant idea.
Put the ugly body on a the great platform the name use to grace.
Here we have a 90s Eclipse. It has the legendary 4G63. It’s WB is 98.8".
Here is (OH GOD) new Eclipse Cross. With a WB of 105.1". Take the body of the new one, & put in on the old one. It take some body work to make it fit.
Lets go to Chevy, here we have the 1st Gen S10 Blazer(LWB). WB of 107”.
Here is the 2019 Blazer. WB of 112.5" (GMC Acadia WB, same platform so I used that number). Put the new body on the old chassis.
Same for Nissan by putting a new Pathfinder body on a 90's Pathfinder chassis. You get where I’m going with this. Take a new body (model name has to be the same), but put it on the old car. What would you do? Keep in mind it just be the body, so the drive train would belong to the old one.

the F30 and the E60 are 7cm apart, but it doesn’t comply with the name thing.
...
How about a Ram Charger on a current Ram chasis?

The new model has to be announced . In the case of the ram charger it could be the (soon to be) reviled body on the 90's platform.

Except the Blazer makes sense because it always was a small SUV used for daily driving and that’s exactly what the new one represents as well.
They weren’t all K5 Blazers.
Fun fact though I had a classmate’s mom drive me home from school a few times in one of those S10 Blazer Tahoes there, it was...an experience.
