Chevrolet's all-new Cruze, its latest entry in the midsize segment, is set to hit Middle East showrooms next year and will launch a dedicated website where visitors can register to receive regular updates on the car.

This website, www.cruzearabia.com, will go live later this week.

"Having been designed and developed by a global product development team, the Cruze is a true embodiment of Chevrolet's global nature and appeal," said Karen Toor, marketing manager for Chevrolet Cars in the Middle East.

The Cruze will be manufactured and sold in the Middle East, North America, Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia Pacific. The Cruze's arching roof-line, extending from the steeply raked windshield to its sloping rear pillars and short rear deck, gives the car a sleek look typical of new Chevrolets.

Wider and longer than most of its competitors, the Cruze has a purposeful stance with its wheels located at the outer edges of the tautly drawn bodywork. Noticeably tight body panel fits and a restrained use of exterior trim add to a high quality, 'hewn from solid' appearance.
