Holden lifts Cruze appeal with Z-Series

Holden is introducing two new models to the Cruze line-up with the Z-Series and SRi Z-Series arriving in Holden dealerships across Australia this week.

Replacing the popular Cruze CDX and SRi-V models, the new additions add sporty content to the already generous list of standard features of the regular models.

Philip Brook, Executive Director Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing, said the new Z-Series models were an offer that would be hard to walk past.

“Without doubt, the Cruze Z-Series and SRi Z-Series represent two of the best value offerings in the small car market today”,said Brook.

“Aggressive driveaway pricing and high-end features mean that they will be sure to stand out in this highly competitive small car market.”
