Chevrolet UK launches Cruze CS aero kit with contrasting wheels – Will it come here?
Filed under: Budget, Sedan, Chevrolet, GM, UK
Well, now – look who got themselves a set of fancy new dancing shoes. Chevrolet Cruze buyers in the UK can now outfit their thrifty little sedans with a trick lowered suspension, rear spoiler and contrasting wheels, straight from the factory. The look helps the car resemble the Silverline Cruze currently bashing around the British Touring Car Championship. We certainly dig on the white 18-inch multi-spoke alloys. They look right at home on the blue car in the high-res gallery shown here, especially given the more aggressive stance served up by the reworked suspension.
General Motors is calling the package the CS styling kit, and those wanting a little extra menace with their Cruze better get ready to shell out £1,595, or $2,410 at current exchange rates. As the Cruze starts at around $15,500, that’s a not insignificant amount of dosh, but it also adds a good amount of presence to the visuals and hopefully improves handling.
Either way, we have a sneaking suspicion that we’re not likely to see the CS package on our shores. Most Americans have no clue what the BTCC is all about, and while the add-ons certainly sharpens the appearance of the Cruze, we’re more likely to get a mild body kit and not much else. Hit the jump for the press release.
