Nope, but as long as they modify it so I can see my brake pads I'm good.

I feel like the number was just pulled off the Ascent tune...which I think the FA24 turbo @ 260hp. Maybe the rumor shaved off 5hp and added + just so it didn't look like a copy and paste from the Ascent spec sheet. |

Another article written on pure speculation, reiterating what all the other articles written on speculation have said.

Why is it rendered as a hatchback? Not that I'm against it, just seems odd.

My thoughts? It's clickbait. Nothing else.

The URL tells me everything I need to know. It's garbage clickbait. Not even going to read it.

The damn autocar report picked up so much attention even motortrend ran with it. It’s obvious everything is speculation because autocar won’t even mention a source besides “a report,” but now the whole internet thinks their rendering and info is the real car and everyone is freaking out.
It’s amazing what false information can do to people...imagine if people did that with geopolitics...oh wait... |

I kinda feel like making my own article about the next-gen and see how many people I can trick.
