Cruze COTY Finalist
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 News by adminThe Chevrolet Cruze has been voted in by the South African Guild of Motoring Jounalists, as one of the eight finalists in this year’s COTY – Car of the Year competition.
Over 300 members of the SAGMJ voted from 136 different derivatives of new vehicles which were launched between September 2008 and October 2009. This list of new models was made up by 35 different manufacturers. From a final list of 90 cars, this was cut down to 40 cars on 23 November, during the SAGMJ adjudication process.
The SAGMJ jury panel then voted for the 8 finalists as voted for by the SAGMJ members. Our Chevrolet Cruze is the ONLY model in it’s market segment to have been selected – and the Cruze competes in very good company indeed !
The next “step” is a two day test period where all 8 finalists are evaluated at Gerotek by the SAGMJ COTY jury on 11 & 12 February 2010. The winner of the coveted COTY will be announced on 18 March 2010.
According to Malcolm Gauld – GMSA VP for Sales and Marketing, “The all-new Chevrolet Cruze is changing minds about what a sedan in this segment has to offer. With fresh new Chevrolet styling, a full suite of safety features and impressive value, the Cruze is making a strong inpression on South African motorists”.
Please note that CP Nel Motors in Mossel Bay has a Chevrolet Cruze available on demo at all times.
