Personally, I don't like it. Looks like a mini-van with no style.
My wife is going to need a new car and she likes the looks of the Chevy Sonic 5-door hatchback with the turbo.

Saving grace is that it's a "mushroom mobile". You know, one of the many mass produced vanilla automotive appliances out there that you don't have to care so much about if it gets abused in a parking lot by a shopping cart because there's no emotional attachment to an appliance. In this case, Chevy runs about as deep as its Asian counter parts, which is about as deep as a street puddle.

Looks to me like a shrunk down version of the old Equinox.
Also reminds me of all the other cookie cutter small SUV’s out there.
Such as . . . Kia Soul and Sportage, Honda Element, Scion, The Cube, just to mention a few.
One reason I bought my HHR was because it “had Style” and the only other thing like it was the PT cruiser. And even that one did even come close to matching the HHR.

Nothing Special

To me the Orlando is a generic design. I believe it's a bit bigger than the HHR. If I recall, there's a 3rd row of seats that is not terribly usable. It really adds nothing to what you can buy somewhere else. I believe GM got it right to keep it out of the USA.

Granite has only 4 seats and LOTS of access with those dual-opening doors. It is novel and is more practical. If it gets produced in a year or two, it will be more successful than Orlando would have been. I might even replace my HHR with one some day.
