Quote:

According to General Motors, the Flextreme previews new elements of Saturn and Opel design language, including more sculpted surfacing molding, clear style elements such as narrow, boomerang-shaped lights and a sloping feature line in the side graphics. The vehicle also marks the return of a popular Saturn feature from the past: quad coupe doors.

Interestingly enough:

http://www.zercustoms.com/news/Opel-Flextreme.html

"Building on the initial collaboration with the Chevrolet Volt, GM Europe Design worked closely with SABIC Innovative Plastics, formerly GE Plastics, to develop the Opel Flextreme, which showcases unique polycarbonate window glazing, lightweight body panels..."

I'd read that as polymer panels

Wishful thinking?

If so, I'd totally be onboard - my dream saturn always had a diesel engine...

Methinks this hints at what the NG Astra hatchback on Delta II could look like, although I'd expect the front and rear to be toned down considerably.

Here's another article from AOL on the Saturn Flextreme...

apparently you'll be able to get 444 miles on one charge:
