It looks like a clamshell but it opens with the hinges near the windshield. The visual effect is the same from the outside. I would have been really surprised if GM invested that much money to redo the hood latches, hinges, struts, etc... Redoing it all would take lots of new validation testing which costs quite a bit of money and time.
