PepsiCo's line of chubby plastic 2-liter bottles are getting a slimmer redesign — the first in about three decades.

Beginning this week, some US customers will see in stores a new bottle with an enhanced "grip point" at the bottom that's 25% slimmer than the old bottle, among other design changes. The "modern, functional and easy-to-use bottle" makes it easier to pour, PepsiCo said in its announcement Monday.
