Chevrolet has big plans for their Cruze, and the American automaker hasn't disappointed with their facelift on the popular model. We saw the Cruze Wagon variant make its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March and now we have gotten a look at their facelift, aimed at the 2013 sedan and hatchback models. The Cruze's facelift features horizontal front bars replacing the previous mesh grille, redesigned air intakes around the brand-new foglights and a rear reminiscent of previous models.

It sits on a set of 17-inch alloy wheels. Chevrolet will also give their European customers an efficient 1.7-liter VCDi engine, rated at 130hp and emitting only 119g/km CO2. The 2013 Chevrolet Cruze sedan and hatchback should both be on display at September's Paris Motor Show.
