Lightened Next-Gen Zeta Platform Also Will Underpin Caddy, Buick (http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&fd=R&usg=AFQjCNGUjoka9niVZt_56BJgStEO_Foodw&url=http://www.motortrend.com/features/auto_news/1011_rear_drive_chevy_sport_sedan_is_back_on/)

General Motors' next-generation Zeta rear-drive platform will be heavily updated from its current form, with lots of high-strength steel to bring down weight. The price point of the cars that will use the platform makes this possible. They will include a new Chevrolet sport sedan on the shorter of two Zeta wheelbases. Think of it conceptually as a kind of four-door Camaro, even as the '14 Camaro moves to the new, smaller Alpha platform.
GM is still working on a flagship for the brand, a Sixteen-inspired low-volume car, likely with a small-block V-8, designed to give Cadillac street cred in Europe and Asia as the resurgent Standard of the World. With post-bankruptcy GM ramping up and adjusting product development at a rapid rate, future product plans are changing monthly, and mostly for the better.
