These are the first leaked photos of a Chevrolet concept set to spawn a new family of products for the brand, announced at GM's 100 year centenary celebrations last month. This new family, which is particularly important to South American markets where a GPiX derivative will replace the Corsa, will consist of sedan and pick-up truck variants in addition to hatchback models, while the range may also boast a small crossover vehicle similar to the design study.
Based largely on the outgoing fourth-generation Opel Corsa, the Chevrolet Viva will measure up with similar dimensions to its European donor, with a 2.5m wheelbase and 4m length. Engines expected for South American markets include the 1.4-litre Econo.Flex and a further 1.8-litre drivetrain.
Further details and high-resolution photos are expected to emerge after the car's debut at the Sao Paulo Auto Show on Monday.

Why is that? …too much bureaucracy? …too many designers spoiling the design? …internal politics?
