Chevrolet Cruze will be powered by four new engines

Presented at the Paris Motor Show Chevrolet Cruze sedan serial will go on sale in March next year. This car was designed as a replacement for Chevrolet Lacetti and positioned as a new global model, which will be sold in most world markets. Cruze - it is really a new car. His body is 140 percent stiffer than the Lacetti, and the suspension was almost completely redone: mnogorychazhka yielding place to the rear torsion beam, and front left McPherson. According to the developers, the beam appeared because such a decision to simplify the layout of the rear and leaves more room in the trunk. Although most likely it was simply cheaper to hand engines in Chevrolet Cruze - new. Two petrol units of 1.6 and 1.8 liters and output of 112 and 140 horsepower, as well as two-liter turbodiesel rated at 150 horsepower (320 lb) - these engines will soon launch new products into production. A little later to be joined by another two-liter diesel engine with 125 horsepower (300 Nm). Gasoline sedans can accelerate from zero to hundred kilometers per hour in 12.4 and 9.8 seconds respectively, while the version with 150-horsepower diesel engine - in 9.4 seconds. Outwardly, at Lacetti Cruze and there is not the slightest resemblance: the new sedan looks strictly, stylish and very modern. And the interior - it is hardly not important, what will love the novelty buyers. Attention to detail, quality and texture of materials - everything is at a level that the Cruze will now become a serious competitor to not only Korean but also many European bestseller. In addition, the novelty is about to appear full-fledged navigation system with 7-inch display, a multimedia center with Hard Disk and play DVD-discs, LED lighting devices and controls on-board electronics and so on.
