It's a two-seat roadster and an airy convertible, although with that obvious truck box in back there's no doubt it's also a pickup. Chevrolet calls the unique new vehicle the SSR -- Super Sport Roadster.
Think of it as a cross between a truck and an open-top roadster, but don't expect to see anything else on the road quite like it. There's that bed in back like a truck, but also a retractable hardtop that converts the vehicle via power controls to a breezy convertible. The lid folds in two pieces and tucks vertically behind front seats.
Frame and chassis for SSR were lifted from Chevrolet's mid-size TrailBlazer SUV, and it packs a new aluminum-block version of TrailBlazer's optional V8, a short-block plant displacing 5.3 liters and making 300 hp with GM's 4L60-E Hydra-Matic four-speed transmission. SSR rolls on alloy wheels clad with performance tires measuring 19 inches up front but 20 inches in back to set up that sporty rump-high stance.
