Face-lifted Chevy Cruze launched ahead of Diwali

New Delhi, October 24, 2013: Ahead of the festive season, General Motors India has rolled out the face-lifted Chevrolet Cruze priced at Rs 13.75 lakh for the manual transmission variant and Rs 16.15 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) for the AT-equipped model.

The changes are very subtle. They include only new 16-inch alloy wheels and new bumpers. The interiors remain the same as does the powertrain. Under the hood is the same 2.0-litre diesel engine that develops 164bhp and 38.7kgm of torque, which can either be mated to a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission.

“The Cruze has received an overwhelming response from consumers across India since its launch in 2009 and continues to be the largest-selling Chevrolet nameplate globally,” said Lowell Paddock, president and MD, General Motors India. "With new stylish exteriors, modern comfort features and added safety, we expect the all-new Cruze to continue exceeding expectations of car buyers and keep up the excitement in the festive season.”

The Cruze sold 991 units in the first six months of the current fiscal as against 2,358 units in the year-earlier period, a drop of 40 percent. The executive segment in which this brand operates is dominated by the Hyundai Elantra and the Toyota Corolla.
