Chevy HHR Panel: America's Astravan
While wandering around the Vauxhall showroom I couldn't help but think that the Astravan might be a handy buggy to have. Lo and behold a few days after my showroom musings GM announced that the Astra's Delta platform cousin, the HHR gets a delivery style panel van of its very own.
In a "Six Degrees" sort of situation Brian Nesbitt, who designed the HHR, is now Executive Director at GM Europe's design center and is responsible for guiding Opel (and by extension many of Saturn's future products), Saab and Vauxhall design. The current Astra was not Nesbitt's work, but look for the next Astra to have a lot of input from the Phoenix born designer.
