You know how there was a
question of whether or not we'd ever see the
Chevy Beat for sale in North America? The answer to that question is looking more like a big fat yes. Of course, a subcompact like the Beat makes perfect sense in a landscape where gas is selling for well over $4 a gallon in many areas. Our quasi-confirmation comes not from El Generalissimo, however, but from the set of
Transformers 2, which was recently given its tagline:
Revenge of the Fallen. In the photo above, next to Bumblebee, is the
Chevy Beat -- partially covered, but the Beat nonetheless. You know what putting it in the movie does, right? It makes people want it. Last summer, it was the
Camaro. Next summer, it looks like
GM's gonna make the Beat a big star. You can see the above photo and more from the set at the
Transformers Live Action Movie Blog.
Thanks for the tip, Cory!
