 New Vega Hatchback Coupe- This distinctive four-passenger coupe model of Chevrolet's new 1971 Vega 2300 economy car has a wide combination rear window and rear deck that swings up for easy access to the rear compartment and a fold down rear seat for extra cargo room. This is one of four Vega models. Vega's individual styling will be continued for at least four years. Roomier and better handling than usual economy cars, Vega has a new, domestic- built lightweight overhead cam engine to fill performance needs of American drivers. It gives impressive fuel economy and low emissions. Among "firsts" in economy cars are Vega's power-flow interior ventilation, comfortable molded foam seats and steel side-guard beams in the doors. Vega models go on sale in Chevrolet dealerships on Thursday, September 10.
