I was looking through google and found these pictures from Motor1.

It has the look of the FNR-X with the headlights and slanted rear end. It is a CUV in size.
I suspect this is the new Blazer.

One thing of interest, as on the FNR-X Concept if you look at the rear quarter panels where the gas cap/electric plug is located there are square cut outs on the camouflage(both sides.)

That big honking tailpipe in the back makes me think this is an Equinox update. I thought the FNR-X was all electric. I'd be happy with an FNR-X body and a Voltec drivetrain.

Actually it may be a 4 cyclinder duramax diesel version...originally found in the Canyon

Zero doubt that is the next midsize Chevy SUV, name it FNR-X/Blazer/Camarinox or whatever, the biggest question is will it get a plug...
Well hopefully the camo tells the story just as it does on the XT4.

It could be a cross use platform, so hopefully they release this as a EREV. If people find out it's fully capable, they will buy it even if they don't intend to plug it in. When they find out they can drive around town without ever using gas, then they'll find the time to plug in a socket.

Sadly, the FNR-X concept has some really nice curves that don't appear to be in this test mule. The bulges over the wheel fenders just aren't there. So I am hoping this is the blazer and the FNR-X will look more like the show car prototype.

https://www.motor1.com/news/130556/2018-chevy-cuv-spy-shots/ my best guess this is the same vehicle as above with a little bit less camo...All the lines are the same, different wheels but same 6 lugs and the side mirrors are the same...Based on the GMC Acadia, Cadillac XT5 and Buick Enclave...One opinion is it'll be called a TrailBlazer and not Blazer but probably without a plug...I'm beginning to think this will be out for MY19, is nearly finalized and has nothing to do with the FNR-X which was just a recently developed prototype...

Just found this article which states: "Chevrolet designed the FNR-X with the China market in mind, but the company may take the concept overseas as well to test international reaction" http://www.autonews.com/article/201...nr-x-concept-spotlights-chevys-new-technology

Other than the rear camo not being form fitting to the rear and hanging over the overhang instead, it looks very similar...Now if one ends up being a Chevy and the other ends up being a Buick/Caddy/GMC who knows...I'm still seeing the same lines and just about everything shares the same location between both vehicles...

I see similar lines between the two spy shots, but the FNR-X doesn't really match either spy shot. I hope they bring FNR-X to market as close to the prototype as possible, just like Subaru did with the Crosstrek XV, and Cadillac did with the CTS Coupe and ELR.

Oddly I caught a local SoCal ad last night for the Transverse, that is what pic #1 and #3 is of...You guys are right that the A pillar trims and mirror placements are different...

I like it a lot, except for the strange blue hump on the C pillar. Makes it look like a leaf, except less fugly. If I get one, I'm dipping the blue hump black or the black parts into the body color. Even gunmetal gray metallic would look good there.

WAIT!!!! The Grandland X says Turbo on the back. Why would they add a turbo to a PHEV?

GM should offer 3 powertrains to every vehicle (Subyukonade!!!!)
