With bankruptcy behind it, General Motors is speeding up the development of vehicle programs that had been delayed, the Automotive News reported.
The next generation Chevrolet Malibu will go on sale in two years, the paper said. In August, GM executives said that car would debut a year later, in 2012, the Automotive News said.
“Once we got out of the bankruptcy and started having money available, we were able to pull a lot of our programs forward,” GM Vice Chairman Bob Lutz told the paper. He said “a bunch” of other vehicles were being pulled forward, without being more specific or identifying them. Lutz was interviewed at a press preview Wednesday to show some of Chevrolet’s future vehicles and highlight the brand’s marketing strategy, the story said. (Automotive News)
