Chevrolet Spin Showcased at the 2016 Auto Expo

#first2expo- With the biggest media crew on ground, CarDekho brings to you the most extensive coverage of Auto Expo 2016.

Chevrolet has showcased its ‘Spin’ MPV at the ongoing Auto Expo 2016. Spin will compete with Honda Mobilio and Maruti Suzuki Ertiga in the MPV segment. Chevrolet’s existing MPV, ‘Enjoy’ has been doing well, majorly in the taxi sector while ‘Spin’ is expected to be branded as a premium MPV. Chevrolet plans to launch the same in the Indian market by 2017.

We expect a Fiat sourced 1.3-litre multijet diesel engine in the Spin, which has an output of around 90 PS with 200Nm of torque and is most likely to be mated to five-speed manual transmission. The petrol variant might get an automatic transmission as well and we expect the pricing to start from Rs. 7 Lac.

At a press conference last year, Chevrolet India had announced Rs 6,660 crore investment for our market, in the coming years and the first car to be built in India with this fresh infusion of funds is the Spin MPV. Chevrolet has brought in an ugraded version of Cruze to the Auto Expo, along with Camaro and Corvette. To make the experience more interactive for the consumers, the company has showcased interactive applications like Oculus Rift Virtual Experience at the Expo.

Commenting on the company's plans for the event, GM India President and MD, Kaher Kazem, said that visitors to the 2016 Auto Expo will see a completely new Chevrolet. “Our presence at this year's event will be highlighted by some Chevrolet product reveals that will mirror the aspirations of Indian consumers and compete in the most vital segments of the Indian vehicle market," he added.
