We went from what appeared to be a development test mule just a few weeks ago to what now appears to be an actual prototype of Chevrolet’s all-new MPV. General Motors will be introducing an all-new ‘people mover’ for the 2010 model year. The Delta-based MPV will be built at GM’s Hamtramck, Michigan, plant – along side such future vehicles as the Chevrolet Volt and next-generation Malibu.

Codenamed MPV-7, this new ‘people mover’ will be closely related to the next Opel Zafira – although it will get its own unique look. The front-wheel-drive MPV will offer seating for either five or seven passengers – depending on the options and packages that the customer chooses.

We’ll be seeing much more of the new MPV as it gets closer to production.
