Equipment and practical details

Chevrolet Cruze · Generation 1, HR51S, HR81S · Japan · 10.2001 - 06.2008. These features occur in different versions of this generation. They are not a shared specification for every car: check the selected trim for the equipment you need and how it operates.

Generation and equipment description ↗

Differential locking
Confirm which differential is controlled and how the mode operates. Electronic traction intervention and a mechanical lock need to be distinguished.
MacPherson front suspension
For a version with MacPherson front suspension, identify parts by body code and specification. The layout name alone does not establish that struts and springs are interchangeable.
Rear torsion-beam suspension
For a version with a rear torsion beam, confirm the suspension specification and mountings in the parts catalogue. Check the rear layout separately from the front suspension.
