Recently frozen project Niva Chevrolet of a new generation again acquires life. Such a decision was made during the meeting of Nikolai Merkushkin, who was held by the Governor of the Samara Region, with Jeffrey Glover, who is the General Director of the GM-Avtovaz.
What will the Niva still be with the project of the new Chevrolet?
Previously, the above persons had already met in the spring after leaving the Russian market of the GM concern. Then the Chevrolet Niva project simply could not be implemented, and the SUV itself entered the conveyor due to the lack of financial resources from the company within four billion rubles. Now Jeffrey Glover said that from the previous meeting in the development of the project under consideration, very serious progress is observed.
Also earlier, the car manufacturer’s shareholders could not come to the consensus regarding the Chevrolet project for the new generation of the Niva crossover, but now they were still able to find the optimal output for both sides in this situation. In addition, the support of the SUV is a guarantee of the appearance of the next version of the federal government and regional authorities.
True, when exactly the project Chevrolet Niva 2 will come to a logical conclusion at the moment is unknown. However, the manufacturer is now implementing intensive testing of the crossover on European roads, and he demonstrates excellent multifaceted effectiveness.
It should be noted that earlier the Chevrolet Niva project of a new generation involved equipment in accordance with the Peugeot Citroen license with a 135-liter 1.8-horsepower gasoline unit issuing 170NM. But now information has appeared that a completely different power plant will be integrated, the characteristics of which are still silent.
