Chevrolet Beat To Be Featured in Transformers 2

By bwbm on Monday, June 09, 2008 @ 05:15:48 PM


So it looks like the Hummer HX will not be the only concept vehicle that will be featured in "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen." According to Autoblog, the Chevrolet Beat will be featured in the film as well.

Which robot it will serve as an alternate is unknown, if at all.

The vehicle was spotted at the Udvar-Hazy Museum shoot that happened this weekend in Chantillly, VA.

The Beat debuted at the 2007 New York Auto Show along with sister vehicles Trax and Groove.

Individuals were asked to vote for which vehicle they would like to see General Motors build, and since the Beat won the vote hands down, what's a better way to chalk up interest for the vehicle than putting it into a movie that will surely be a blockbuster hit?

Thanks to "Blitz" for the heads up!

Er... So maybe they'll say that the Mustang is just too pimpin' and the Decepticons know what he looks like so he'll have to find something more subtle? As in, Optimus says, "You've blown your cover. Get a new altmode and..." Of course, the Beat comes rolling out with a tr... read more

I doubt it too, because in the "movie-verse" Bumblebee is a musclecar-based warrior - most of the audience would be saying "WTF? Why would he change into an economy car? That ain't cool..."

AGREED! It could be because of the animated BB, Hasbro "MAY" want him more "bumblebee-ish"... but i doubt it.

apart from being neon green. also with the camaro coming out in the same year as the movie I don't think they will make a story point of how the fuel consumption is poor. if anything I can see the Beat being some sort of little brother character for BB to take care of. or maybe the beat will be ... read more

If he changes alt modes, there WOULD be at least one scene of the two cars together when he scans it. And who says anything about "upgrade"? Maybe he's just in need of better fuel efficiency and/or he has Decepticons hunting him down, forcing him to change models. The car SCREAMS Bumb... read more

Forget the car! I'm more interested in the SR-71!

That beat just screams Wheelie. Other than that it's pretty cool. If that is Bumblebees new alt mode I'd consider it more downgrade than upgrade.
