It is definitely an electric version of the Orlando. I wonder if that would be able to tow anything. The electric motor should be able to produce enough torque to pull. I guess it would come back to how rigid is the uni-body. I dont think Electric vehicles will catch on untill people can haul around their toys with it.

The only way elec vehicles will catch on as a whole is when gas runs out.....
I guess woofers/speakers in the tail pipes will be common then too..

An attractively styled and priced electric vehicle would be welcome in my driveway.

Well they have scrapped the Orlando for US. So if you want a small gm suv go for the terrain or equinox. Link provided here.
