How will GM market this in the US? After Saturn two Astra generations ago and Buick one Astra generation ago, what will it be this time?

You actually think it’s going to make it over here to the U.S.?

I certainly don’t.

Well, the Buick Verano is a last-gen Astra. Kinda. The Saturn Astra was the Opel Astra before that last one.

If there’s a sedan version, it’ll be a Buick. Otherwise it won’t be coming here.

There will be a wagon version, obviously, but I’m not sure about a sedan. In Europe, especially in Western Europe, sedans in this segment aren’t very popular and usually not even available. There is a sedan version of the current Astra though, similar to the Verano, but I doubt I’ve seen more than a few.

If they want to sell it in China, they’ll make a sedan. I don’t know if they are planning on that though.

They’ll raise it three inches, add plastic cladding, and call it a crossover.

Did they even change anything besides the stupid piece of black plastic on the C-pillar.

Oh yeah they gave it an interior from a Peugeot.

Don’t forget to add a lot of weight ‘for safety’.

That’s the 3-door, that’s not a fair comparison.
