While it continues to enjoy success in key markets across the globe, low sales figures (1200 per year) of the current Chevrolet Cruze in India and the dwindling popularity of mid-size executive sedans may have knocked India out of the high-priority list. However, reports suggest that GM India could unveil the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze at the 2016 Auto Expo, while a market launch is expected in early 2017.

The long delay between its unveil and market launch could be attributed to the time required to increase localization levels of the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze for competitive pricing, or that the demand for the Chevrolet Cruze isn’t compelling enough for a sooner launch.
