General Motors India on Thursday launched a refreshed version of Chevrolet Cruze with exterior styling, new comfort features and added safety priced between Rs 13.75 lakh and Rs 16.15 lakh.

“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,” Lowell Paddock, President and Managing Director, GM India, said in a statement.

The all new Cruze comes with a new dual-port front grille with gold bowtie, newly designed front and rear bumpers, dual bezel design headlamps, new alloy wheels and new fog lamps, the company said.

It is equipped with dual front airbags and two side airbags, which enhances safety in case of a high-impact collision. The strong and rigid ‘safety cage’ has reinforced pillars with tubular bars, which provide optimum protection to passengers.

The Chevrolet Cruze comes with both a six-speed manual and a six-speed automatic transmission mated to the all-new 2.0-litre VCDi engine.

“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,” Lowell added.
