Chevrolet Cavalier (China)
This is the new Chevrolet Cavalier for
China, it will be launched on the Chinese
auto market on September 2, featuring a big grille and LED lights. The
Cavalier is not entirely new. It is basically the previous generation Chevrolet
Cruze sedan in a new skin.
The Cavalier will get the same engine
and transmission with Cruze. It is going to be very cheap, with price expected to start
around 80.000 yuan. Dimension size will be 4544/1779/1467mm, and wheelbase is 2600 mm.
This car is not very pleasant to the
eye. Interestingly, the platform of the Cruze Classic and now the Cavalier
belongs directly to the Shanghai-GM joint venture, and not to GM. This sort of
ownership transfers are not uncommon in China, and the main reason why all this
antique is still around.
