Chevy Trax underlying thought joins Beat on TF2 set

We know the Chevy Beat was constructing an occurrence in the overly-named Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. The new to know is this one of its “triplet” siblings, the Chevy Trax concept, is joining it, as you can see above. The two are chasing/following Bumblebee on Philadelphia’s JFK Boulevard. Proof of GM’s new commitment to constructing greater number of smaller, fuel-efficient cars, you ask? Eh, well, as you may remember, Trax and the third triplet, Groove, got not slated for creation desire the Beat, so the current is (unfortunately) perhaps just recently a movie special. At the very least one Autoblogger is happy, although (raises hand), due to the fact that Trax is the one he voted for endure year. Transformers Live Action Movie Blog wonders if the Beat and Trax can be portraying the Autobot “Twins” in the sequel. Sacrilege? Well, if the movie Bumblebee can be a Camaro rather of a VW beetle, there is no grounds Sideswipe and Sunstreaker will not be Chevy-branded “world cars” rather of twin Countaches. If the turns out to be the case, though, it performs kinda form one want Lambo put up to be side of Michael Bay’s party alternatively of Batman.
