Not sure if srs or pal...

Chevy site still says summer 2013, just wanted to confirm it.

And if there will be other small diesel cars/trucks coming or not

Everything rides on the Cruze. They just officially showed it last week at the Chicago auto show.

If Cruze diesel sales are over 15% of total, then they might think about expanding it.

So I can get a diesel cruze this summer...?

That's what the man said.

Awww yea, how accurate are the MSRP predictions? Think chevy site says ~25k?

Considering that GM has listed the price...100% accurate.

Sweetness, wonder how bad mark ups will be, is GM predicting the diesel cruzes to actually sell?

A great question that made me do a little searching on jetta diesel production numbers compared to gas being they are a comparable diesel/gas car to the cruze....came up empty but did see some chatter on the tdi boards about the cruze being a direct competitor to the jetta so the word is out.

And IF the diesel cruze is relatively trouble free over its first years it could really make a ding in TDI sales in my opinion.

I know plenty of people that would love to go diesel vs. gas car but are uneasy about Ze Germanz and maintenance costs for things other than the engine.

VW says that 25% of Jetta sales are diesel. Problem is that the bulk of that is the wagon, not the sedan. Chevy is looking for 10-15% take rate for Cruze diesel.
With an advertised 42mpg, it matches the Cruze Eco manual's mpg rating, but the Cruze D comes with more equipment and most likely better than tested mpgs.

fully loaded diesel ltz offered?

Diesel comes fully loaded. Only option is navi and sunroof IIRC.

Is that a global stat or USA?

North America. They already sell Cruze diesels elsewhere in the world. It's the NA market that worries them.

I meant the bulk of jetta tdi sales being wagons? That stat is for NA?

Aye, around there. I don't have the most recent mix, but I have a friend at VW that can give me an exact number.

No reason to go that far.

The reason I question it is because I see far greater amounts of TDI sedans than wagons, but that could just be due to the region of NA we live in.

Is a wagon known as the sport-wagon? If so i heard some things about them discontinuing it...no?
