Not even Giugiaro’s website shows the car’s design as they produced it to Isuzu, but it does confirm that Isuzu offered the result to GM Design who had a few notes. The result is decent-looking in that rational, ’80s way even with Irv Rybicki’s touch all over it (especially noticeable on the sedan). Too bad about the “missing” 5 door hatchback, though.
