Choosing the Chevrolet Cruze Amid the New Cars in India

I won’t be wrong if I say that the Chevrolet Cruze and the Chevrolet Beat are riding herd amid the new cars in India. Whether it is the exterior styling or interior décor or engine capacities or performance and more, you will just love driving them flaunting your style statement. While a neighbor in my left bought the Chevrolet Cruze, the neighbor in my right bought the Chevrolet Beat and both the cars get parked in close quarters in front of our apartment. I was not that crazy about these two new cars in India but after my eyes fell repeatedly on the sedan and hatchback, I am now all geared up to buy one. But now I am in a dilemma whether to go for the Beat or the Cruze.

As I don’t own a car and had been planning for long, I have been looking online, especially at car portals for new cars in India. Now that I have accumulated the funds, enough to get me the Beat, I am thinking why not get the Chevrolet Cruze with the help of a car loan to reimburse the remaining amount. Higher level of power and torque resulting in excellent acceleration and engine performance are features common in both the new cars, but a sedan is a sedan after all. The Cruze is available in both petrol and diesel engines whilst the Beat being only in petrol. And I want my car in diesel.

Handling and safety of the Chevrolet Beat

Chevrolet BeatMuch has been talked about the braking, handling, and safety aspects of the Chevrolet Beat amongst the new cars in India. The dynamic and efficient suspension system - rear variety of Compound Link Type and front variety of Mc Pherson strut type – all powered with gas filed shock absorbers, facilitates in extra driving comfort as well as stability.

The sophisticated braking system enables safe driving. Using the Anti Lock Braking System (ABS), you can prevent wheel lockup during a sudden braking on highways or busy streets. You can easily manage unexpected braking surprises on the road with the front and rear brakes. De-accelerating of the car in high speed is thus a possibility due to the powerful braking system that the Chevrolet Beat in India comes equipped with. This is one of the key reasons why people have fallen in love with this car amid the collection of new cars in India launched during more or less the same time.

There are both active and passive safety features, enabling safety of the driver and passengers. In case a collision takes place, a cushioning effect is produced by the presence of Dual SRS airbag, thus reducing the impact of collision. Moreover, to add to the safety factor are the 2.5 mph impact proof bumpers helping reduce the impact of any injury. Clear visibility during the night is made feasible with the halogen headlamps. So, even if you are driving at high speed at night, the roads become clearly visible to you.
