Chevrolet Cruze 2012 hatchback concept debut

The new Chevrolet Cruze sedan is selling well in many parts of Europe, South America, China and India. The car was just introduced in the United States too, and the car is already on sale in South Korea and Australia under Daewoo and Holden badges respectively, making it a true “world” car. Sales in the Middle East have yet to pick up, but we actually have one in our fleet right now to investigate further why it is so popular elsewhere. General Motors is hard at work to extend their market share however. Europeans love hatchbacks more than sedans for some reason, so the Cruze hatchback is a logical conclusion.

The 2012 Chevrolet Cruze hatchback will debut at the Paris Auto Show later this year in “concept” form, although it looks very production-ready already. The car will hit European showrooms by mid-2011, though it is unknown if it will become available in the GCC.
