Chevrolet Cruze to Debut in October

Chevrolet announced that its all-new entry in the compact segment will be called Cruze and it will make its global debut at the Paris Motor Show in October.

Cruze was developed by a global design and engineering team and will be built in multiple locations around the world. The Cruze approaches an overall length of 4.6 m and offers ample interior space and cargo capacity for five passengers, giving it an advantage over competition in the compact segment, said a statement.

The Cruze features Chevrolet’s new global design. “Combined with high safety standards and excellent build quality, Chevrolet will again deliver on its promise of offering a very attractive package at an exceptional value,” the company said.

The new Chevrolet Cruze will be available in European markets in spring 2009, followed by other global regions.
