Now on, Daewoo Matiz and Lacetti will be known as GM Korea's Chevrolet Spark and Chevrolet Cruze!

GM Korea Chevrolet Spark and Cruze


GM Daewoo's Lacetti Premiere (launched since late 2008) and GM Daewoo's Matiz Creative (launched since Autumn 2009), will be renamed as GM Korea Chevrolet Spark and GM Korea Chevrolet Cruze (differentiating from the US Chevrolet Cruze, launched since Autumn 2010) as part of the Korean launch of Chevrolet and the renaming of "GM Daewoo Auto and Techonology" into "GM Korea Company" starting late March 2011.

Despite renames, they are not counted as one of the eight new Chevrolet models coming to South Korea this year, ranging from the Orlando ALV, Aveo Sedan and Hatch, the Camaro (CBU from America), Captiva SUV, new midsize sedan, an unnamed imported Chevy model, and something that will built at the Bupyeong plant.

We already have these two in the Philippines so the new naming will take effect to South Korea this March.

GM Daewoo Matiz Creative

Does everyone remember Skids from Transformers Revenge of the Fallen?You remember how this super-cool Autobot look like in car form. Well, the point is that Skids character in car form was the sign of the new compact car created by General Motors via the GM Daewoo division. To tell the truth, Skids will be a take-home car on one name: the new generation Matiz (now with the Creative moniker on it).





Do not upset over the wonderful features seen on the new Matiz because these looks can bring the term "fashionista" to the next level! When the outside has based on the Chevrolet Beat concept compact car as seen on the 2007 New York Auto Show, there are new exterior features that leave owners to inch closer than other compacts. On the front view, the diamond headlamps shine like a 24-karat diamond. When others say that these headlamps shine like a diamond, which is because of the High Intensity Discharge headlamps that shine through the dark roads. Imagine how our pal Skids would like to see it through his own eyes! On his side view, where can passengers find a door that leads them to the rear seats? Just like the Nissan Pathfinder or the Armada, a secret rear door leads you to the rear seats. Skids really do have a secret entrance for other passengers to seat on the back.

On the inside the Matiz Creative, the others think that someone hit an instant jackpot on the inside. From the stylish seats that made professionally for customers, dashboard adds a bold finesse that best served with the new dynamic meter cluster that displays real-time information and the performance the Matiz done for.

The big question is, what kind of engine that powers our pal, Skids, all the way to the danger zone? Here is the answer: the Matiz Creative has powered with General Motors' new 1.0-litre S-TEC II DOHC engine capable of releasing a nimble power of just 70ps at 6000rpm. Available transmission is a 4-speed automatic transmission.

IT IS A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU, SKIDS.

Hearing out about how our Autobot friend, Skids, became the take-home car for sale, what would our Chevrolet Camaro friend, Bumblebee, would react about this? With General Motors emerged as a new GM after long weeks of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy filing, the Matiz became the perfect global car in different GM brands. Is there a chance of becoming a success or a failure for our Autobot pal, Skids? Be prepared because Skids will come at different countries to achieve total popularity thanks to its diamond headlamps, secret rear door and the dynamic meter cluster that you can see on the Matiz Creative! Moreover, when it hits to our shores as a Chevrolet, it will be bigger than our acts of Transformers-ism the same way we did to Bumblebee!
