European Patent Filings Reveal New Chevrolet Crossover
Is this the Chevrolet version of the Buick Encore? Recent drawings filed to the European patent office reveals that General Motors could be preparing an entry-level crossover for its Chevy brand.
It appears that this Chevy crossover will be a little more than a foot shorter than the current Chevy Equinox model and has the possibility of making its way to the U.S. because it doesn’t really have a currently-viable competitor to popular crossovers like the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4.
Few details were released on the new crossover, but L’Automobile Magazine hints that this new crossover could be part of the new partnership between Citroen and GM.
