Cadillac Provoq-ing a Green Image?

Rick Wagoner will unveil the Cadillac Provoq Concept at CES. My guess is that the fuel cell powered Provoq will foreshadow the forthcoming Cadillac crossover, heretofore called the BRX. I arrive at this conclusion from this Automotive News article which states:

Cadillac is expected to show a crossover concept smaller than the SRX. The Provoq concept will define further the aggressive design strategy Cadillac started with the 2008 CTS. Elements include a bold front grille, side fender chrome accents and a wider track enhanced by bulging fenders. Expect fuel economy to be a key point. The Provoq concept will be powered by a fuel cell.
GM's fuel cell based Project Driveway vehicle is the Equinox and since the "BRX" will be based off a variation of the Equinox's platform, let's call it Theta Premium, then it wouldn't be stretch to see how the Provoq arrived at its fuel cell configuration.
