This
is the new Australian built, Series II Holden Cruze. The
next generation of Australia’s
best selling small sedan. The car that delivers new levels
of style, comfort and sophistication.
The new Series II Cruze doesn’t just create new expectations,
it sets new standards across the range. Cruze combines a classic
Holden look with a touch of sporty flair. And those sophisticated
sporty looks are reinforced with the attention to detail you
would expect from a Holden. New models, new engine options, new
technology and a new look.
It’s the big small car with more to like – with the
new SRi and top-of-the-range SRi-V sports models complementing
the luxurious CD and CDX models. Whichever Cruze you choose,
you’ll love the way they combine sporty looks with unrivalled
levels of luxury. The new Series II Holden Cruze is the only
small car built in Australia. While benefiting from GM’s
global engineering and manufacturing prowess and European styling,
the model is decidedly Australian. The new, Australian built
Series II Holden Cruze. It’s
not just a small car. It’s Australia’s small car.
The new Series II
Cruze is the small car that’s big
on style. Dynamic and elegant, this is a car defined by clean
bold lines, accentuated by a new look, new eye-catching colours
and new wheel designs.
Step up to the Cruze CDX and you will find stunning sophisticated
touches. This luxurious model is accentuated with chrome exterior
highlights, elegant 10-spoke 17" alloy wheels and chrome
surrounded fog lamps, making this car a very stylish package.
The new SRi and the top-of-the-range SRi-V adds an extra dose
of excitement. These cars are the height of Cruze style, adding
a sports body kit which includes a rear lip spoiler, front
and rear sport fascias, sports grille, sports side skirts and
17" alloys to provide the perfect mix of sophistication
and sporty flair.
The more you look, the more there is to like. The Cruze’s
bevelled hood, sharp angles and sculptured fenders are details
generally reserved for luxury vehicles, but not any more.
The Series II Holden Cruze is a statement of unequivocal style
and true individuality.
Series II Holden Cruze is serious about safety. So serious,
in fact, it has a 5-Star ANCAP safety rating standard across
the range. Cruze achieves this highest possible rating with
a comprehensive range of state-ofthe- art active and passive
safety systems. To help you avoid an accident, there is everything
from Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and 4-wheel disc brakes
with Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), through to Traction Control,
Brake Assist and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution.
Should a collision occur, the active safety systems in the
Cruze instantly activate the necessary occupant protection
systems, including up to six airbags – front driver and
passenger, dual front side and full length side curtain airbags
for front and rear passengers.
Front and rear crumple zones further maximise your safety,
as does the vehicle’s high strength steel unibody construction:
a passenger safety cell welded onto full-length frame rails
to form a single protective unit.
Serious protection, every time you drive. That’s what
you can expect from the Holden Cruze.
Inside the new Series
II Cruze you’re surrounded with
class leading levels of comfort and technology. You’ll
see it in the ice blue instrumentation, the theatre lighting,
the steering wheel with audio and cruise control functionality
and a dashboard filled with premium
appointments. You’ll feel it in the refined contours
of the sports seats with high quality materials that flow through
to the door and dash inserts. All standard across the range.
The CDX gives you even greater levels of comfort and control,
with heated leather appointed seats, chrome interior highlights
and rear parking sensors. And then the SRi-V gives you all
of this, plus the addition of some serious technology. Like
Passive Entry and Start
with Sensor Key technology, Satellite navigation with a 7" colour
widescreen and a premium DVD audio system with an in-built
10GB hard drive and the ability to pause live radio.
Even with all these appointments, the Cruze is still a serious
five-seater. There’s enough head, shoulder and leg room
for everyone.
The 60/40 split fold back seat complements the sizeable 445
litre boot, and there’s still space for four cup holders,
four door-well bottle holders and plenty of storage compartments
for all your valuables. If you’re serious about comfort
and style, get into the Holden Cruze.
Holden Cruze is the small car with more More powertrain options
are available with a choice of three engines: the 1.8 litre
petrol, a new 2.0 litre turbo diesel or the new 1.4 litre iTi
turbo petrol engine. The Holden Cruze marrys 4-cylinder fuel
economy with the type of performance, ride and handling only
a Holden can provide.
1.8 litre petrol engine:
The 1.8 litre DOHC 16 valve 4-cylinder ECOTEC petrol engine
is standard on CD and CDX models. This advanced, petrol engine
produces spirited performance from low revs to high.
1.4 litre iTi turbo petrol engine:
The new advanced 1.4 litre DOHC 16 valve 4-cylinder iTi turbo
petrol engine, which takes sporty driving another step forward.
The intelligent turbo induction (iTi) system uses an exhaust
manifold integrated turbo charger to provide superior performance
with an enviable fuel economy starting at just 6.4L/100km.
This combination of high tech efficiency and performance is
standard on the SRi and SRi-V, and optional on the CD model.
Watts Link suspension
The 1.4 litre iTi turbo petrol engine comes standard with Watts
Link suspension that sets a new standard in sporty handling
and refined feel. The Watts Link provides additional lateral
support to the rear axle. This results in a tighter rear
wheel steer effect and a tighter directional control when
driving through bends. The benefit is a more responsive drive
with crisper steering, adding to driver enjoyment.
2.0 litre turbo diesel engine:
Or choose the super smooth 2.0 litre DOHC 16 valve 4-cylinder
common rail turbo diesel, optional on CD and CDX models.
This new generation diesel engine uses a high-performance
fuel injection system and electronically controlled turbo
charger with intercooler, to deliver power to spare with
the fuel economy and CO2 emissions you expect from a state-of-the-art
diesel.
Transmissions
5-speed or 6-speed manual:
Designed with a super smooth short throw for more spirited
driving, these manual transmissions have the ideal first gear
launch feel and lower cruising revs in the higher gears, and
come standard across the range.
6-speed automatic with active select:
This transmission maintains optimum engine economy across a
wide range of driving conditions, and offers the added advantage
of one touch switching between automatic or manual gear shifting
via Active Select. This automatic transmission is optional
across the range.
