I m Chinese, I just want to say this truck is low price, useful and with not bad quality to drive in China. Some of you guys say this is shit, actually i want to tell you, not one push you to buy it. Chinese also don't like America track, big, big and big, bad ecolomice of oil, hard to parking in the city. in this age, ecolomice always important than other. why GM is close down? coz bad ecolomice and always build singel cam V8 or V6 engine then never make some new technology to the car. lazy!

GM is presenting this as something 'new'? Cars like these have been around for decades, usually sold under the Daihatsu or Suzuki brands and equipped with little 800cc or 1000cc engines. They sure are cheap, but horrible to drive.

You can drive them on the road in AZ. Register them as an ATV, you get a motorcycle plate.

This gives me heartache because it reminds me of my Subaru Libero that got stolen; that little sucker was tank. Lutz implies that a market for these Kei Trucks doesn't exist in the states, which means he clearly isn't aware of the thriving business of importing them and selling them for commercial and agricultural use. You can buy a brand new one at various dealerships in California right now; you just can't drive it on a road, is all.

@SUPERAPE22 GM China has it sBEST sales IN CHINA selling the Buick and Chevrolet! THE NO.ONE selling vehicle I believe is a GM Buick built in China!! GM can build better cars, they just don't want to pay UAW workers what they are worth! So they go where the average labor rate is $200 per month. Your comment is ridiculously flawed! IF GM CAN'T BUILD A QUALITY CAR THEN WHY DO THE CHINESE PREFER THE BUICK AS THEIR FAVORITE CAR??? Fool.

@SUPERAPE22 Chrysler started building in China during the Reagan Rust Bowl 1984, same time GM closed its Los Angeles factories near my home. GM has been building Chevys and Buicks in China for years. REASON: Average Chinese industrial monthly wage is $200. PER MONTH! Has ZERO to do with building better cars. BTW GM DID build better cars from the "get go". Read your history.
