Czech website Autoforum.cz published the first image of what should be the restyled Chevrolet Cruze, which should become available on the market next year. The picture shows us a heavily modified front end, with a new front bumper with built in LED stripes placed in the re-designed fog lights section on the two sides, while the lower air inlet has now an hexagonal shape. It is rumored that the new Cruze (meaning both 4 and 5 door configurations) will also receive a new engine option in the form of the 2.2-litre VCDI diesel engine already used by the Captiva, which will provide the model with an extra 21 hp over the 163 hp produced by the current 2.0-litre unit.
The new Cruze will make its worldwide debut in March at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, whereas a brand new station wagon version - completely developed on the base of the ‘regular’ model - is also expected to appear at some point next year.
