my dad just visited a chevy showroom... and according to the guys there the FWD or AWD diesel version performs better than the 2.4 gas version  ;D

saw one on the road... in edsa / manda, i find it rather small compared to the new CRV.. maybe even a bit smaller than the new rav4.

when i first this in the pics, i thought its the asian version of the Equinox... hindi pala.

Its not really just a re-badged Daewoo, but it is badged as a Daewoo in the Korean market(GM's domestic Korean brand).
It was originally developed to be a Chevrolet with Europe as its main market. It rides on GM's Theta platform which it shares with other GM models including the Opel Antara, Saturn Vue, and Chevy Equinox(LWB).
