US-based automaker General Motors plans to showcase its range of new vehicles from its Chevrolet and Cadillac brands at the upcoming Dubai International Motor Show.

The tenth edition of the biennial Dubai International Motor Show 2009 will be held from December 16 to 20 at The Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Chevrolet models that will be seen in the flesh for the very first time in the Middle East include the game-changing Volt, an extended range electric vehicle, the 2011 Spark, a funky five-door, and the highly anticipated Corvette Stingray Concept.

New launches include the all-new Cruze and Malibu sedans, as well as the iconic Camaro.

The dramatically designed CTS Coupe Concept, which has generated huge interest since its unveiling at the North American International Auto Show Detroit, will also be featured at the Cadillac stand.

Also featuring prominently at the Cadillac stand will be the all-new Cadillac SRX luxury crossover, which will be launched during the show.

The SRX has already been hailed as a major competitor in the crossover segment by top Middle East motoring journalists, and will appeal to younger consumers with its dramatic and dynamic exterior design, along with a luxurious and technology-packed interior.

“The concepts and forthcoming models on show from Chevrolet and Cadillac will be the jewels in the crown of the General Motors stand at the Dubai International Motor Show this year,” said Fadi Ghosn, chief marketing officer, General Motors in the Middle East.

“The full line up of cars is sure to generate a huge interest for everyone, from those checking out potential new purchases to those wishing to see and sit in stunning cars they have only seen on the big screen,” he added.

Alongside several customised cars and full size SUVs from Chevrolet and Cadillac that are sure to attract future car buyers, Hummer will launch its most powerful vehicle ever built, the H3 V8, while GMC will be represented by its ever popular models which include the Yukon Denali and Sierra Denali. – TradeArabia News Service
