What is it? Chevrolet is hedging its bets with the seven-seat Orlando. Should the market shift toward thrifty, fuel-efficient people movers, it will have a three-row model positioned under the new Equinox to fill that role. Think of it as a Kia Rondo and Mazda5 competitor.

Based on the Cruze sedan platform, the Orlando show car has a 2.0-liter turbodiesel engine that creates 150 horsepower and 235 lb.-ft. of torque. Production details will be announced in the near future.

What is new or notable? The interior is a flexible arrangement with theater-style seating. The second- and third-row seats fold flat into the floor to create a relatively large cargo space.

When will it be available? 2011
