<br /> We're not entirely certain, but it sure looks like it. General Motors recently released a YouTube vid explaining what makes a Chevrolet a Chevrolet that shows a series a of sweeping shots that catches bowtie specials like the Corvette Grand Sport and the 2010 Camaro. At around 1:05, the camera focuses on the C-Pillar of a Camaro, and as the shot pans across the coupe's greenhouse, a quick glimpse of two production-ready Chevy crossover vans is given.<br /> <br /> The crossover on the right looks a whole lot like the Chevy Orlando concept <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/10/02/paris-2008-chevy-orlando-concept-outdoes-the-hhr/">debuted at the 2008 Paris Motor Show</a> last fall, which also looks an awful lot like the vehicle captured in these <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/gallery/2011-chevy-orlando-spy-shots/#4">spy photos</a> below. The Orlando is set to replace the HHR in Chevy showrooms by 2011 with seating for seven and car-like fuel economy. <br /> <br /> The crossover on the left could be even more interesting, as it appears to share styling cues with the Volt, an example of which is parked next to it. Could this be a crossover with the automaker's extended range EV Voltec hardware underhood? Is it the Chevy version of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/08/06/buick-teases-baby-enclave-promises-2011-plug-in-hybrid-version/">plug-in Buick crossover</a> we heard about last week? Again, we can't be sure with just a few seconds of video as evidence, but we're willing to wager that the Volt styling cues signifies that there is likely an electric motor and batteries somewhere under that hood.<br /> <br /> GM likely has managers and ad execs who scour these videos before they ever see the light of day, so we should assume that the company is simply giving us a cryptic peek at what is to come. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/08/12/production-chevy-orlando-spotted-in-promo-vid-w-video/">Follow the jump</a> to view the vid for yourself. <span style="font-style: italic;">Thanks for the tip, Ted!</span><br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="postgallery"><p><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2011-chevy-orlando-spy-shots/low/">2011 Chevy Orlando - spy shots</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2011-chevy-orlando-spy-shots/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/orlando.sw2.kgp.ed_thumbn ail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2011-chevy-orlando-spy-shots/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/orlando.sw1.kgp.ed_thumbn ail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2011-chevy-orlando-spy-shots/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/orlando.sw3.kgp.ed_thumbn ail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2011-chevy-orlando-spy-shots/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/orlando.sw4.kgp.ed_thumbn ail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2011-chevy-orlando-spy-shots/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/orlando.sw5.kgp.ed_thumbn ail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br /> [Source: <a href="http://www.cheersandgears.com/index.php?showtopic=39405 &hl=">Cheers and Gears</a>]<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/08/12/production-chevy-orlando-spotted-in-promo-vid-w-video/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Production Chevy Orlando spotted in promo vid?
