GM workers get glimpse of new auto

General Motors officials showed a photo of the new Chevrolet Cruze to employees during a TV presentation this week.

Rick Wagoner, GM's chief executive, showed a photo of the car during a presentation transmitted to GM workers all over the country. It was the first time GM had shown the car.

GM announced last week that the Cruze will be unveiled for the first time at a car show in Paris in October. The car is to be launched from the Lordstown complex in 2010, although it also will be produced elsewhere for markets outside North America. Lordstown now produces the Chevrolet Cobalt.

Nancy Libby, a Chevrolet spokeswoman, said no details have been released on when the Cruze would be shown in the U.S.

Scott Burgess, a columnist for Detroit News, wrote that the Cruze promises success because GM is powering the car with a new 1.4-liter, turbocharged engine that is to have fuel efficiency of 45 mpg.
