Subaru Sequel?
Does anybody else on here see a suspicious resemblance between the new Hydrogen fuelled Chevrolet Sequel and the Subaru Tribeca?
To me they look extremely similar from the side, very long wheelbase, big rear passenger door, and you could almost swear the side glasses from one would fit the other. Is there any chance GM took the Tribeca body as a mule for adding on the hydrogen drive plant? Joe

I would agree that they look like twin brothers but in GM's defense, GM has really pushed hard to develope the Hydrogen technology that powers the Sequel. I'm been following Alternative fuels for about the last 5 years since fuel prices spiked in 2000 and the GM Hirewire has been at the forefront (along with other some other players) of Hydrogen technology. However as a Subaru fan let me say that GM will never match the Beauty of AWD

differences
it looks like the main differences are the shape of the front windshield, and the door panals, and front bumper panels
