We show how the standard electroweak gauge model can be naturally generalized to SU (2)× U (1)× SU (2)', which has twice the number of gauge bosons of the standard model. All known fermions transform with respect to SU (2)× U (1); spontaneous symmetry breaking is achieved with a scalar quartet which links SU (2) and SU (2)'and the usual scalar doublet. The interaction Hamiltonian at low energy reproduces the low-energy phenomenology of the standard model. The high-energy predictions of the model are explored. One W and one Z are less massive than the corresponding bosons of the standard model. These light bosons are relatively narrow, with total widths typically 50 MeV. Cross sections for light Z and W production in e+ e− collisions and hadron collisions are given. A Z mass as low as 32 GeV is compatible with existing measurements; the most stringent present limit is set by the e+ e− annihilation cross section.
