Chevrolet Cruze Biodata

We'll look at the Cruze in the order of criteria outlined above. First up is fuel economy. The Chevrolet Cruze, which is currently available in European markets, comes with a four-cylinder engine with displacements ranging from one.6-liters to a three.0-liter diesel. These models have modest fuel efficiency ratings and overall driving response from the engine is sluggish at best. For the Cruze's introduction to the American market, a one.4-liter turbocharged gasoline engine is in the works, which ought to feel more responsive and get great fuel economy. GM is currently estimating 30 mpg in the city, and if that pans out, then the Cruze has got the fuel economy requirement nailed.

General Motors has been desperately trying to crack the compact cars market for years. The Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic have retained their crowns in the segment by beating off earlier GM attempts such as the Cobalt. When it comes to being successful in the compact market, you need to have several things: great fuel efficiency, passable cabin room, and affordable pricetag, and at least a small little bit of style. The 2010 Chevrolet Cruze looks to be the best positioned GM model to have a shot at succeeding.

The Great Chevy Camaro Z 28 Picture and Biodata

2010 Chevy Camaro Z 28 Model

For muscle automobile fans, the current economic situation is distressing. With automakers trying to produce vehicles that will appeal to drivers on a restricted budget, lots of powerful, but pricey, cars are dropping down the priorities list. Case in point is the Chevy Camaro Z 28. The Z/28 has been an on again off again part of the Chevy lineup since December of 1966, & a used version based off of the revived Camaro is waiting in the wings, but may seldom be released. The Z/28 has always been a high performance vehicle, & the 2010 model is no exception. While the automobile hasn't hit assembly lines yet, the design is much finalized, & Chevrolet says the Z/28 will be powered by the LSA V8 engine. This engine is currently in use in the Cadillace CTS-V sedan, but a supercharged version of the 6.2-liter behemoth is planned for the Z/28 that will produce 556 horsepower. Thinking about that the CTS-V can go from 0 to 60 in three.1 seconds, a Z/28 with the same powerplant & weighing a few hundred pounds less ought to have no issue making it in under three seconds. Also, as you can see from the pics, the Z/28 is a slick looking automobile.

So what's holding it back? First and most obvious is the current economic climate, but that doesn't tell the whole story. After all, lots of luxury automobile companies are still selling expensive vehicles. of the major concerns for Chevrolet is CAFE regulations. CAFE regulations are the government imposed standards for brand-wide fuel economy ratings. Currently, CAFE states that American manufacturers must meet a fleet-average of 35 mpg by 2020. Historically, adherence to the regulations hasn't been fiercely enforced, but as a condition of the U.S. government's loan to GM, the automaker agreed to hit that number. Introducing a special edition muscle automobile that will get, at best, around 15 mpg, would hurt the company's average, making it hard to meet the standard.
