Are coupes making a
comeback? That’s what this article
from The Truth About Cars is postulating.
Elton reminds us
what happened to the Ford Galaxy and the Chrysler New Yorker. When convertibles vanished for such reasons as
“blood and guts” drivers ed, the coupe shortly followed to later evolve, like dinosaurs into birds, into
the pickup truck.
Yes. Pickup trucks. (Look at that Ford F150 and just squint a bit.) But with
renewed interest in cars again after truck-based SUVs, Elton muses, the rebirth of the coupe such as the Pontiac G6
coupe (pictured) can’t be far behind.
