I don't know about this. I think it's ugly! I looks too much like a PT Cruiser. Why change a good thing?

Concept


Production Model


I got this from the Hollywood Extra

Looks like 5-lug...

Also looks like considerably more overhang at both ends than on the current xB. One of those "longer, wider, lower" things that happens to US market vehicles?

On of the most endearing things about the current xB design is the lack of "waste space" in the styling. That's why the current one is shaped like a box - no swoopy curves trying to hid the very functional 'Urban Utility Vehicle" shape. "Form follows function," eh?

That's actually one of the things that really attracts me to the styling of this "Tokyo City Car."

I don't WANT an HHR or PT Cruiser. :D

I like my little box that even makes a Honda Element look curvey...

I have NO idea what to make of that "production vehicle".

The concept has some stuff going for it, but it's a concept and therefore doesn't mean a damn thing.

Man, that production vehicle is wierd though. Looks like a current xB with a lot of parts grafted on. Wonder what's under that paper...

Well, can't wait to see the real thing next year! Thanks for the heads up!
