As it was mentioned in our previous news story GM-Daewoo will introduce the Scope off-roader prototype at the forthcoming Geneva Motor Show. This show model is a repainted version of the Oto, first seen at the Seoul Motor Show last November. — Suzuki Makai concept at Los Angeles Auto Show.
Brief details on the Scope:
As the possible automotive answer to the lifestyle of the future, Daewoo will be launching its crossover vehicle “Scope” in Geneva. It combines the dynamics and maneuverability of a sports car with the robustness of an all-terrain vehicle. The aerodynamic, wedge-shaped body with a total length of 4,474 millimeters (wheelbase: 2,650 mm) points to the sporty character of the new vehicle while the vertical radiator grille emphasizes its off-road suitability. The width of 1,897 and the height of 1,710 millimeters mark its compact design. — Mitsubishi Concept-RA global premiere.
It is not only the numerous seat configurations that highlight the interior’s flexibility. If more space is required, the armrests can be folded up to get them out of the way. In addition, Scope has only one remote control for the doors as well as the stereo system, which can be quite practical, for example during a picnic. Even the engine can be started using the same wireless control unit. The Scope is powered by a compact, six-cylinder, transverse engine from GM Daewoo’s XK product line. The all-aluminum DOHC (dual, overhead camshaft) engine has a capacity of 2,492 cm3 and an output of 115 kW/157 hp at 5,800 rpm; the maximum torque of 245 Nm is available at 4,000 rpm. — sustainability concepts at Tokyo Show.
