The Charger still sells very well, probably one of their best selling vehicles after the Ram.

I like the concept car, but much like the GTO when introduced failed in the styling department for me (didn't do anything to bring back the classic look of a GTO). For it to carry the Chevelle name it will have to do better and carry over the more traditional style as the Camaro has. Just my oppion, but when I think Chevelle it conjures something more then the concept that is pictured.

Fleet cars and law enforcement vehicles alone could probably carry the Charger line. I'm not a fan of bringing back legendary two door coupes and making them family sedans, however. Say whatever about the last GTO, but it was clearly not designed as a grocery getter or transportation to and from soccer practice.

Just something to ponder...I often wonder what the next Gen Camaro will look like, so instead of being a Chevelle, how about the 6th Gen Camaro?

Of course we realize that this isn’t directly from GM, but can’t we dream and speculate? Haha

Perhaps this is more like the age old question of which came first the chicken (aka - the photoshop rendering of two concept vehicles by some random person) or the egg (aka - an actual concept image purposively “leaked” by GM to secretly watch people’s reaction)?

GM needs something to compete with the Charger and Taurus SHO. A retro-(ish) Chevell 4 door (yes..I said that) with a V8 option between 360-390 HP and more comfort features would do well. If GM had been wise they'd have made one ready to compete with the Charger repop in 2011/12.
Agreed^

I think the day and age has come where 4 doors isn't a bad thing. The Camaro takes the coupe spot. Build the next Chevelle as the G8 was...and ditch the FWD Impala and don't call it a Malibu that's a camry type vehicle.

GM has hole in their product lineup, no affordable 4 door performance sedan.

Some of us need the passenger space and the 2 seater Camaro doesn't cut it (lets face it the back seats in the camaro are worthless--worse then 4th gen and way worse than the 04+ GTO).

Most of that is actually the concept version of the volt, before they f***** it up. Nice car, they should replace the impala with this.
