2011 Holden Cruze Series II Sedan Revealed

HOLDEN SERIES II CRUZE

Holden has today taken the wraps off its new Australian-built Series II Cruze, bringing styling updates, wider model choices and new petrol and diesel engines.

New sports models also feature in the Series II Cruze line-up, with the new SRi and range-topping SRi-V joining the existing CD and CDX. Click here to learn more about the SRi and SRi-V.

“This is Holden’s largest engineering and manufacturing program since VE Commodore but it’s also a successful private and public partnership which shows what can be achieved when industry and government work together,” Holden Chairman and MD, Mike Devereux said today.

“Localising Cruze has allowed us to re-engineer the car for Australian drivers, with greater fuel efficiency and performance, and given our manufacturing operations the flexibility to meet the needs of the Australian market well into the future.”

Based on General Motors' Delta small-car platform, the Series II Cruze joins the Zeta-based Commodore on Holden's production line in Elizabeth, South Australia.

When the Cruze Sedan is joined by the Australian-built Cruze Hatchback later this year, Holden's Elizabeth plant will feature 51 variants in its assembly schedule - including six body styles and nine variants in left and right-hand drive.
