It was expertly debadged, and I have no clue what it is. Spotted in Michigan, and most likely a GM product. Thoughts?

Cruze? Malibu?

Looks like it could be a Chevy Cruze

Could be....is it due for a facelift soon?

It was about thematic length, small or midsized car.

New one came out this year, maybe a different model or Buick version?

Well I doubt that since it was launched last year, maybe this is a left over mule they are using for extra calibration tests or something like that.

2016 Cruze, based on the shape of the headlight and the hood shut line above it.

Huh, good point. I got nothing then, :).

New Volt maybe, that is a low drag roofline

Hmmm, maybe. I don’t know Buick well enough to know though.

(Should note, I also live in SE Michigan, and there are lots of calibration vehicles running around at all times.)

The front grill is completely different though, :/.

I thought that too originally, but wasn't sure.

Wanted to say the same thing.

I wouldn’t say completely, they just masked it off a bit.

I’m sure the front is just a mock up, or its’s a Euro version of the car. I’ve seen test cars here in CA and they often have strange coverings and don’t look like production.

Could be true too.

Only the openings in the camo wrap are different. I’m sure the grill underneath closer or identical to the production version. Also note the hidden fake window behind the doors and the lens-less non-production head- and tail-lights.

It’s a 2016 Cruze but I can’t think of a good reason for it to be in camo.

New Sonic sedan. Looks like they're keeping the exposed headlamp look.

I like this guess. Wouldn’t make much sense to be a Cruze since we’ve already seen that.

The exhaust pipe makes me think not, but it could be a decoy I suppose.
