This is the van. A Euro re-badge, It would Seem in NA, they can't design a modem van. Judging by the dated pass vans. All the Modem vans are from Europe.

Oh please, the current van is available with a Duramax, that to me makes it way more desirable than this.
Lighten up Francis.....

Not official, note that barely-readable article is from January.

The '17 Express is still the old model but the 1500 model has been discontinued since 2014. The Duramax has been dropped for '17 as well.

I think it's safe to say that a Euro-based model is forthcoming though.

They are offering the same 4cyl diesel as the Canyon/Colorado in the big Express vans this year.

That's not official either. GM has published order guides for the '17 models and the 2.8 is not mentioned. Could be a late introduction though, or maybe it's coming for '18.

A 4x4 converted full size van has been on mind for a really long time

Exactly, I just think they are really the most practical vehicle out there. You have the sliding doors of a van, true 4x4, a frame, a solid axle and a V8 so you can tow....yeah, I like it.

I was wondering how the new generations of vans were selling. Pretty well it turns out.
On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Discontinued for MY17, at least in the cutaway.
