The spyshot above showing a dashboard with a Daewoo logo on the steering wheel has been widely accepted as being snapped from a Chevrolet Cruze. The upcoming C-segment sedan will replace the Cobalt and the Optra and will eventually find its way into our market replacing the Optra Magnum as GM has designated it a World Car.
The Malaysian (or rather ASEAN) will most likely lose some of the nifty stuff like the large LCD screen and perhaps have the center dash area simplified with manual air conditioning knobs and losing alot of other buttons in the process, but I think on the overall it’s quite good looking and reminds me alot of a Honda.
Look after the jump for two artist impressions from this month’s Autocar India based on the image of the Chevrolet Cruze exposed in GM’s presentation.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
This looks like honda at front and bmw at rear. LOL.
Nice design.
this is one hell of an ugly car
Reminds me of Accord in a lot of ways. Looks huge too.
At least better than proton design
Paul,
I agree with you on the overall looks good except the front grille. Looks like the car wearing the thin belt in zaman P.Ramlee’s movie la (second picture). The logo somemore made it look like a belt buckle! :-) Anyway, I feel really disappointed la when I heard we (Malaysian) will not getting all those tech features. Apa nie? Why we got second class treatment? Apa orang Malaysia takde duit ke? Sigh! :-(
I also kinda like the interior…lawa gak!
Just one glance reminds me of Accord but without the refinement.
Agree? Interior-wise, it’s not bad nor fabulous.
toyota camry?… look at the back…
Looks alright except for the head scarf on the front grille, Interior-wise, the dashboard look alike with the Accord. The Lexus tail light is also quite nice.
Nice design, Hats off!
for sure, our interior will be dumbed down. market requirements and user demographics.
hmm cars in this segment got big rear like hyundai elantra and nissan sylphy. ya torque, i feel the same too. the car im driving, like most everybody else, is with technology dated back from 90s.
Let’s see…the front grille and lights remind of the latest Accord, and the butt reminds of the current e90 3 series. The instrument cluster reminds me of an Alfa, and the centre console, the previous gen Accord. Hmmm…and also, the car seems to be lowered quite a bit as well! Overall, I would say…er…dunno la…its a mixed bag…
Cool looking Korean car
Attractive design should attract a lot of buyers on it’s own!
sure like the interior. but this car really looks similar to Honda. Even the steering looks similar too.
Who copy who then?
That steering reminds me of the Civic, if I’m not mistaken, because Civic was the very 1st car to have that design. But I kinda like the front, regardless the wearing-a-belt look. Designed for maximum air intake i suppose. And if the car is really THAT lowered, then it’s a sweet and sturdy ride. Just replace the original rim with an 18 incher. Me Loike !
It’s gorgeous man… but amazing how accurate the artist impressions got it… :D
I have seen this car up-close and personal at an auto show. This car is taking over the Cobalt, but it is bigger and has more safety options. It also gets great gas mileage. The new sleek design can attract any buyer, especially the price tag that will start around $14K! They are coming out in the latter part of this year and I hope to get one!
by the way, Chevrolet is not a Korean brand, its American.
