Someone actually bought one of these. Chevy Orlando, a Canada special and I must say it’s quite the piece of shit. That is all.

Not gonna lie, looks pretty nice with those wheels. OOOOTHERWISE, looks like a bit of a POS.

So an HHR with a square roof?

I saw one of these in the U.S. Once.

It can’t be that bad, if Wikipedia is to be trusted, it’s kinda like a Cruze long roof.

...or to put it another way, a less ugly HHR.

Yeah basically, a lot more squared off though, less PT Cruiser-ish.

Should have heard how it sounded. A very miserable and tired 4-cyl under that hood.

I've only ever seen a couple

They're very cheap and plasticu though, even worse than the Cruze.

I second those wheels, they look good on that car. I wouldn’t buy one since my parents are Japanese loyal people, but I wouldn’t mind seeing one of these on my daily commute.

Knowing GM, they probably are just wheelcovers ontop of steel wheels.

See them all the time in Toronto, there cheap family haulers.

Strange looking thing, isn't it?

GM should sell these down here.

No they were real alloy wheels! I do like them to.

Indeed. Reminds me of a shrunk down minivan.

For what they are, they don’t seem that bad - a cheap, reasonably fuel efficient family hauler.

I’m sure that they’re not that bad, especially for the fairly low price they charge for them. But my god is it fat and ugly.

I like the look and size of these. Never drove one. Why do you say it’s a piece of shit?

Needs a W12 version.

They’re just very cheap and plastic-y, that’s my main issue with them. Also, on models without these rims, they look absolutely stupid.

Was it a Canada only model? I never knew that. I’ve only seen like 2 or 3 of them in my life.

When they very first came out I thought it was a neat idea since it’s like a mini minivan(like the Mazda5) . Tons of room for what it is. But they had shitty fuel economy and it was an all around shitty car.

It was sold in Europe as well but in North America only Canada go the Orlando. It was originally supposed to be sold in the U.S. but they decided to sell it to Canada instead.
