Will Insignia replace the Vectra name?
GM EUROPE'S president, Carl-Peter Forster, is reported as saying that the Vectra name will disappear when the replacement arrives in summer 2008.
He said the all-new car would be a radical departure from the current model and that the Vectra name would be dropped to reflect this change.
Insignia seems to be the favourite to replace the Vectra name but GM is making no comment.
Meanwhile, production of the Vectra and the Astra will be cut by about 9% next year as the Vectra begins its run-out and the new Corsa wins sales from the Astra.
