New Chevrolet Cruze launched with 'Jet Black' interiors | Chevrolet General Moter India Ltd | Chevrolet Cruze New Look

Aptly advertised as the ‘Diesel Rocket’ the Chevrolet Cruze is said to hit the 100 km/hr benchmark in just 11.4 seconds from a complete standstill. While performance, interior gadgetry (keyless entry, steering mounted controls) and aggressive styling were the highest selling points of this car when it entered India’s growing Full-Size Mainstream Sedan market, one of the biggest factors that provoked any sort of hesitation with the purchase of this oil burning outperformer was the quality of materials that made up its interiors and the low slung roof that reduced headroom space to an extent, especially as compared to sedans like the Toyota Corolla Altis (Diesel).


Being the first full-sized compact sedan to be introduced based on GM all new design language for its current generation automobiles, the Chevrolet Cruze has been a part of Chevrolet’s model line-up since 2009, and has fared exceptionally well in India’s C-Segment, which is presently brimming with competition.

Making amends to the original Cruze’s facile interiors, General Motors India, now introduces its stylish ‘diesel rocket’ in an all new ‘Jet Black’ avatar, contrasting titanium coloured stitch lines and some other additional features, thus giving the sedans interiors a much needed refreshing and luxurious appeal.

Launching the new model, Mr. Karl Slym, President & Managing Director, General Motors India said, “The new Cruze combines powerful performance with jet-black interiors that redefine luxury. The introduction of the new Chevrolet Cruze is a testament to the importance that GM India attaches to maximize customer satisfaction. We have made some exciting changes in the Cruze to make it even more alluring and attractive.”

Available in two different colors, Switch Blade Silver and Sandrift Grey, the three variants (LT, LTZ & LTZ AT) of the new Chevrolet Cruze will offer the following features depending on the variant you pick. These include:

  • Audio Controls on Steering Wheels
  • USB Port for audio system
  • Bluetooth connectivity in audio system
  • Automatic Climate Control
  • Illuminated vanity mirror
  • Automatic inside rear view mirror
  • Rear seat with new seat cushion design
  • Advanced 6 speed automatic transmission

Priced at Rs. 11, 92,602 (ex-showroom, Delhi) will be available across all Chevrolet dealerships in the country from now onwards.
