Opel to revive Monza line with Frankfurt-bound concept

Opel will unveil a new concept aimed at reviving the Monza line at September's Frankfurt motor show, according to reports emerging from Germany.

The concept is believed to be a large coupé showcasing the brand's latest in lightweight materials and in-car technologies.

Details are scarce, but it is allegedly based on a shortened Cadillac ATS platform with a rear-wheel drive layout and will include a range of four- and six-cylinder engines with displacements between between 2.0 and 3.6-liters.

With the recent appointment of Mark Adams to the position of GME vice president of Design and champion for Opel/Buick brand strategies and design language, it raises the question of whether this will also be a new Buick coupé.
