If I remember right, they are push handles rather than pull handles... if that makes sense. Instead of lifting or pulling on the handle, you push on it to open the door... or something of the sort.

Cool video. I say they should keep them as a theft deterrent! I mean seriously, how can someone steal your car if they don't even know how to get in!

At an expected production run of 100,000 cars, I am sure everyone who wants to know will.

I totally overlooked that, that is a pretty unique feature. Definitely something that I am not used to on a GM car, or any car for that matter.

Wow thats is sweet! Much better than anything else out there IMO. Shaved handles are alright, but don't work on some cars. And the new Vettes look kinda goofy too, but the touchpad is sweet.

No need to worry. They won't be staying like that for production.

Though I can see your point if they did. LOL

I though Lutz already hinted that the door handles were changing.

He did.

And the most recent comment he made regarding the size rumors he said something about noticing differences only by checking out the door handles.

That looks a little unwieldy.
