The all-new 2013 Chevrolet Malibu has been suffering from slow sales and poor media reviews in its U.S. home market, so much so that General Motors is apparently preparing an “emergency” redesign for next year. We are not allowed to review the car, so we wouldn’t know.
American-based Nelson Racing Engines, in collaboration with eGarage and Roadster Shop, built this custom 1969 Chevrolet Camaro. Looking stock on the outside, under the bonnet is a little engine with only 2,000 horsepower.
So if you thought that the crazy automobile recall saga had ended, you were wrong. Since our last post on the recalls earlier this year, there were an insane amount of recalls that followed, from almost every car manufacturer in the world you can ever think of, almost all of them being issued following instructions from the U.S.-based NHTSA agency. And we could not bother to post each recall issue as a separate story, the task being as equally tedious as the reader-response to these. Here are all the recalls that could potentially be relevant to our region since April 2012.
It seems to be the season for making tall claims. General Motors put out a press release saying the Chevrolet Trailblazer is the “Middle East’s most popular SUV” without backing up this fib with any more details. That might be a bit hard to do in reality, with Toyota around, and with the real Trailblazer being discontinued since 2009.
Self-praising aside, DriveArabia.com is certifiably the most comprehensive and most popular consumer-focused automotive website in the GCC. That gives us a good insight on what cars people are researching these days. Mind you, researching and buying are two completely different things, but we can figure out from our data which car brands and models are generating the most buzz among the general car-buying population. It is easy to see the concerted marketing effort by certain manufacturers are paying dividends, while some are banking on their long-running earned reputation, and others are doing well purely because of good new products.
The new version of the Chevrolet Impala, one of the icons of the 60’s and 70’s, made its New York Auto Show debut earlier this month. Ridiculously dubbed as a 2014 model, it is all set to replace its crude predecessor which made its appearance back in 2006.
A series of dramatic events unfolded at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, as a competitor’s dragster caught fire in the season-opening Pro Drag Series. The driver managed to make a miraculous escape from his faulty car, thanks to the emergency staff.
The covers have come off the redesigned 2013 Chevrolet Traverse, in what could signal Chevy’s boring future styling direction. It gets a three-bar upper and two-bar lower grille design upfront, as well as a bonnet bulge. Beyond the A-pillars everything has been redesigned, the rest of the body remains till the D-pillars. The rear end gets redesigned taillights, liftgate and a relocated license-plate section.
General Motors will replace the 120-volt power cords on the most of the Chevrolet Volt models that the manufacturer has sold since 2010 in the United States.
