2010 Chevrolet Agile: Official Sketches of Ford Fiesta-Sized Supermini
These are the first official sketches of the all-new Chevrolet Agile, a Ford Fiesta-sized hatchback that was developed and designed entirely by GM's South American operations. Judging by the drawings, the Agile appears to be the road-going, five-door hatchback version of the Chevrolet GPiX crossover coupe concept study that was revealed at last year's Sao Paulo International Auto Show in Brazil. 
During the presentation of the GPiX, Jaime Ardila, President of General Motors Brazil and Mercosur, had revealed that the concept study could spawn a series of small cars for the South American markets.
Production of the Agile is scheduled to begin this fall at the company's Rosario plant in Argentina with sales in South America pegged to start before the end of the year. GM said that the Agile is the first vehicle to make use of its new "Viva" platform that was originally developed for Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay.
While the American automaker did not release any technical specifications on the Agile, buyers should expect a wide range of 4-cylinder engines.
And yes, the thought that the Agile may form the base for Chevrolet's U.S. market small hatchback that will be built in Michigan in 2011, did cross our mind (the smaller Spark is also a possible candidate). However, GM has not made any announcements on the matter.
