Analyst Rebecca Lindland from Global
Insight Inc. is going on the record saying it's likely
General Motors will cancel the Trailblazer (
SS model shown) after the current model ends its run around 2010. Its replacement would emerge in the form of the
Hummer H4, which would fill the role of
GM's smallest body-on-frame SUV.
Chevrolet will receive a new unibody SUV (or
CUV?) at that time, perhaps a version of the
Opel Antera that's crossing the sea to join
Saturn's lineup in the near future.
The HUMMER H4 will likely be built on an even smaller version of the frame that underpins the Chevy Colorado and HUMMER H3. As body-on-frame SUVs are falling out of favor with the family crowd, the H3 will likely carry on the HUMMER cache with impressive off-road abilities and target the Jeep Wrangler as its closest competition.
