The automaker said the concept draws styling cues from previous GM styling studies to show how the company’s next generation small monocab could look, including the distinctive tick-shaped swage line and neat rear lamp clusters that typified the GTC Coupe and Flextreme models.


Another feature is the shape of the glass area, which swoops down towards the B-pillar – a feature that would allow rear seat passengers a better all-round view if put into production.
