We know Chevy probably will beat us over the head with how family-friendly and roomy the Chevy Orlando concept is as its shroud drops at the Paris Motor Show , but naming it after the kid-centric megabux epicenter of Disney just seems a bit extreme. The seven passenger minivan " multi-purpose vehicle with distinctive sport utility-like design " is based on the same platform the 2010 Chevy Cruze rides on and is powered by the same 2.0-liter turbodiesel we Yankees will never see. The press release, dancing like Fred Astaire around the strings of the letters "SUV" and "minivan," is below the fold and another picture more than the two we already had, below. Sorry, they didn't actually have the Orlando here at the GM Paris preview, just on the tube overhead. galleryPost('orlandoconcept ', 3, 'Chevy Orlando Concept'); Chevrolet Orlando show car signals entry into new segment for the brand Paris Motor Show Preview: First Images of the seven-seat...

Here are the first details and photos of the new Chevy Orlando concept MPV ahead of the official reveal at the Paris Motor Show next month. The Orlando, a seven-seat family vehicle based on the Cruze platform, drops it squarely into territory currently occupied here in the states by the Mazda5 and...not much else. The three rows of seating are arranged theater-style for better occupant visibility, and of course, they all fold flat for minivan-like cargo capacity. The photos show a sportier exterior than what we're used to seeing from the MPV market, as well as Malibu cues on the dash and front passenger compartment — all good things, and something we hope to see at our local Chevy dealer toward the beginning of the next decade. Press release after the jump. galleryPost('chevyorlandoparis', 3, 'The Only Thing Orlando And Paris Have In Common'); Chevrolet Orlando show car signals entry into new segment for the brand Zurich - The Orlando show car, making its world...

We thought we had all the new vehicles already figured out for Michael Bay's next GM-gasm — Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen . Turns out there are still a few secrets to suss out as a Chevy Trax was spotted running chest to chest with the Chevy Beat moments after the the Bumblebee/Chevy Trax chase shot we saw earlier. Obviously we have no idea which robo-character this little fella will be playing — hey, maybe all the minicars will join together to form Voltron, and we'll have a crazy giant fighting robot crossover movie! ( Again, thanks go out to Rueben )

The votes are in, those who voted in the GM survey to pick the next microcar selected the Chevy Beat (pictured). I guess when you have a contest you shouldn't be surprised when the one you named Beat beats the competition. Out of 1.9 million votes this was the top selection, besting the Trax and the Groove. The Beat is definitely the most boy-racer-futuristic looking, so it's not a shock that it won. How much of this car ends up in the final car is anyone's guess, in the meantime enjoy the photos of your next GM city car.galleryPost('beatchevy', 4, 'Chevy Beat Promo Pics'); [ Car ]
