Product Overview

Chevrolet Nubira is an affordable subcompact sedan in production from 2005 to 2010 for select markets (notably the European market). It is available with a range of small inline-4 engine from 1.4L to 1.8L.
The Chevrolet Nubira is limited to small inline-4s, which are neither smooth nor powerful. This reflects the positioning of the Nubira.
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Nubira uses MacPherson strut front suspensions, which is not the best for handling or comfort. Still, this chassis choice again reflects the market positioning of the vehicle.
