GM Daewoo begins exporting new Nubira Station Wagon to Europe

GM Daewoo Auto & Technology (GM Daewoo) has begun exporting the new Nubira Station Wagon to Europe. The new model will also be sold in selected markets as the Lacetti Station Wagon starting in autumn.

GM Daewoo held a ceremony at the vehicle export pier of its Gunsan plant to mark the departure of the first batch of 160 units to Germany. On July 23, the automaker shipped an additional 720 units to Germany and Spain and another 490 units to the Netherlands, France, Austria and Belgium.

The dynamic and compact wagon, which comes equipped with 1.6 and 1.8-liter engines that provide both excellent power and high fuel efficiency, will initially be sold by GM Daewoo sales subsidiaries and distributors in several Western European countries. GM Daewoo plans to later expand exports to other European countries including Turkey, Poland and Bulgaria.

With the station wagon joining the compact-class family of Lacetti and Nubira, GM Daewoo expect total sales of these vehicles to exceed 40,000 in 2004.
