Next-gen Cruze getting high marks at Pittsburgh car show

PITTSBURGH

Alison Munnin is in the market for a new car, and the Lordstown, Ohio-built, next-generation Chevrolet Cruze just might be that car.

Munnin, a Fox Chapel resident, was one of thousands at the Pittsburgh International Auto Show Saturday.

“With the new model they have added so many features,” Munnin said. “It’s an affordable price to get so many great features.”

Munnin made sure to check out the Cruze to replace her 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt — another product that came from the General Motors Lordstown Assembly plant — while she was at the show.

A new silver Cruze will be on display from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday and Monday at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh, along with other vehicles in the Chevrolet lineup, including an all-new Malibu. About 600 new vehicles are showcased this year at the show, and 60,000 people are expected to attend.
