Chevrolet Sells 3 Millionth Cruze
Chevrolet Sells 3 Millionth Cruze
Global compact car is brand’s
best-selling nameplate
Eleven
plants. One-hundred and eighteen countries. Eighty-eight awards. And now, 3
million sales for the Chevrolet Cruze.
The
best-selling Chevrolet model crossed the milestone recently,
just 16 months after selling its 2 millionth model. From the U.S. and Canada,
to Laos and the Philippines, to UAE and Jordan, the Cruze has proved itself a
global player among small cars.
“The Cruze is
an extremely adaptable car that can cater to the demands of nearly every market
in the world,” said Alan Batey, GM executive vice president of Global
Chevrolet. “It is a testimony to Chevrolet’s global focus and capabilities to
offer a car that is so highly regarded in so many places.”
The Cruze has
collected 39 product awards in China, 27 in the U.S. and 12 in Brazil. Chevrolet
is committed to building product in the markets they are sold, so the Cruze is
built in 11 different countries on five continents. GM design teams in South
Korea and Germany had the global consumer in mind when developing the car in
just 27 months in the late 2000s before debuting in South Korea in November of
2008.
The Cruze
endured intensive durability testing, including extreme weather tests and more
than 210 crash tests tailored to the regulatory demands of the countries where
it is sold.
For the Middle
East market, the 2015 Cruze features enhanced connectivity with the easy-to-use
Chevrolet MyLink infotainment system and upgraded safety features such as Side
Blind Zone Alert. It also provides Chevrolet Care aftersales service, which ensures
hassle-free service and the lowest maintenance cost in the compact car segment.
According to recent
research, Cruze’s cost of maintenance for up to 100,000 km is @
3.98 baiza per km. Cruze also requires less upkeep than other models in its segment.
The manufacturer’s scheduled maintenance interval for the Cruze is once every
10,000 km versus once every 5,000 km for most of its competitors. This means
fewer visits for service, more time for driving pleasure and more money to
spend on the pleasures
of life.
The
service price of the Cruze is not only competitive, it is also consistent and
transparent. Pricing information is available at dealerships and online at www.chevroletarabia.com, enabling owners to check the cost of service in advance.
Chevrolet Cruze comes with a 1.8-litre
engine and is coupled with a six-speed automatic transmission, delivering
responsive performance with 140 hp at 6,300 rpm and peak torque of 175 Nm at 3,800
rpm, In terms of power output-per-liter,
this engine is among the most efficient in the market.
Cruze is not
only loaded with a lengthy roster of features such as leather seats, rear view
cameras & sensors, smart entry, push button start etc., but also features
a host of standard active and passive safety features.
