The second generation Chevrolet Cruze has been spotted in China without an iota of camouflage by Sohu Auto.

The first generation Cruze, a global success which gave GM a stronghold on the C-Segment for the first time, was launched at the Paris Motor Show of 2008. Now about 6 years later, the successor is ready and is reportedly going to use the media glare of the Beijing Auto Show that starts on the 20th of April to make an entry.
