As probable, the new Astra‘s outdoor styling echoes that of the well usual Insignia with facts such as the smooth of the headlamps, the roofline and the dipped sprouting on the doors all pointing towards the superior Opel. Overall, the new Astra highlight looks sportier and more dynamic in an upscale variety of way compared to the modern generation brand.

While Opel has yet to relief photos of the interior, before spy shots bare that the Astra’s interior is acutely inspired from the Insignia with the dash featuring four deeply positioned instrument dials in front of the driver and a swoopy essential console with a high minor part.

All three variants of the Astra are based on GM‘s new front-wheel-push Delta platform that is also found on the Chevrolet Cruze and Chevy Volt models. However, from what we learned, the bodywork has been modified by Opel’s engineers to submit more dynamic treatment to Opel’s trio.

The 5-door hatchback versions of the newly urbanized Astra will find their way to Opel showrooms across Europe by the end of the year, while the GTC sedan and the Estate variants should result by mid-2010.

2010 Cadillac Sports Cars Concept SRV Concept Cars

This is the concept of next Cadillac. This concept is an idea from its Wayne Cherry who is responsible in making design concept. After a distinguished career at General Motors that culminated in his being appointed only the fifth vice president of design in the company’s history, he decided to build a concept car of his own.
2010 Cadillac Sports Cars SRV Concept
Wayne Cherry has always loved concept cars. Then you take a close look at Cherry’s VSR street rod, at the hardware, the workmanship, and, most of all, the design, and you realize it could easily take center stage as a concept car on the GM stand at the next international auto show.
"You just can't stop designing, you just can't stop being involved with cars," Cherry explains. "You start to do something like this, and it turns into a concept vehicle." He makes it sound like a winter garage project that got a little out of control, which at a basic level perhaps isn't a million miles from the truth. 
Then you take a close look at Cherry's VSR street rod, at the hardware, the workmanship, and, most of all, the design, and you realize it could easily take center stage as a concept car on the GM stand at the next international auto show.
He joined GM in 1962, straight out of California’s Art Center design school, and was assigned to the advanced design studio at the Tech Center, where, among his first assignments, he assisted on a project that became the first Oldsmobile Toronado, one of the high watermarks of Bill Mitchell’s stint as GM design chief.
At Vauxhall, he worked on the gullwing XVR, the brand's first-ever concept car, which was unveiled at the 1966 Geneva show. His wild, mid-engine SRV, shown at the 1970 Earls Court Motor Show in London, was a four-door, four-seater that stood just 41 inches tall. 
The Equus, one of the star concepts of 1978, was a crisp, state-of-the-moment roadster that rivaled the best from Bertone and Pininfarina. "That's the most uncompromised design I've ever worked on," Cherry said at the time.
