\nThe rumored extended range electric crossover we saw revealed in General Motors’ design patent<\/a> drawings is now a reality. The Chevrolet Volt<\/a> MPV5 concept will make its debut tomorrow at the Beijing Motor Show<\/a>, and just as we suspected from seeing Volt design chief Bob Boniface’s name on the patent, this five-passenger crossover rides on the same Voltec architecture as the Volt. <\/p>\n

The new Chevrolet<\/a> concept integrates design elements from the Volt, including the headlight, taillamps and grille, with a five-door hatch body style very similar to the larger Orlando<\/a> and a length about four inches longer than the current HHR.<\/p>\n

Propulsion comes from the same 150 horsepower engine and 16 kilowatt-hour battery used in the Volt. However, its larger frontal area and increased drag mean that this one only has a 32-mile electric range as opposed to the Volt’s 40 miles. The Crossover has full seating for five and 30.5 cubic feet of cargo space behind the seats. The dashboard appears to be lifted directly from the Volt, including the dual LCD displays. We wouldn’t be at all surprised to see this as the second Voltec product in the GM North American lineup. If built, this would likely be classed as a light truck and do wonders for GM’s CAFE numbers on that side of the business. <\/p>\n
