The Chevrolet
Sedan Family
Every Chevrolet Sedan is a quality-built car owners
can depend on to be a trusted member of their family
— year in, year out.
GM has long been a leader in powertrain performance,
and today’s Chevy Sedans inherit this technology,
along with a comprehensive safety package
designed to add peace of mind.
Besides offering outstanding value at an affordable
price, Chevrolet Sedans offer low-maintenance features
that make them easy for customers to care for.
All Chevrolet Sedans are covered by a comprehensive
owner protection program that includes a no-deductible,
3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty and 24-Hour
Roadside Assistance.
Chevrolet offers five distinctly styled sedans to meet
the needs of any age group, lifestyle and budget.
LUMINA The well-equipped, affordable Chevrolet
Sedan for those who want comprehensive standard
safety features with 6-passenger roominess, comfort
and one less thing to worry about.
MALIBU The 5-passenger centerpiece of the
Sedan family, designed to appeal to current owners,
as well as to those who drive midsize imports.
PRIZM The upscale 5-passenger Sedan for those
who want dependability and upscale options, or
who are predisposed to import vehicles.
CAVALIER The low-priced, 5-passenger Chevy
Sedan for young, value-conscious buyers.
METRO — The low MSRP, high MPG,* 4-passenger
economy Sedan for young, first-time buyers seeking
low-cost transportation and new-car peace of mind.
This selection of sedans allows Chevrolet to carry
buyers through all phases of their lives.
*EPA estimated MPG 41 city, 47 highway.
Safety and Security
CRASH AVOIDANCE FEATURES
Standard
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (DRL) turn on automatically
when the ignition is on and the parking brake is
disengaged,to help increase Prizm visibility to other
drivers. The DRL system runs the headlamps
at a reduced intensity compared to regular
headlamp operation.
AUTOMATIC EXTERIOR LAMP CONTROL works with
Daytime Running Lamps and automatically activates
the headlamps and all other exterior lamps to full
intensity when light-sensitive sensors detect darkness
for more than 20 seconds. The exterior lamps will
shut off when the ignition is turned off.
CLUTCH/STARTER INTERLOCK SWITCH, on Prizm
models equipped with manual transmissions,
requires drivers to depress the clutch pedal in
order to start the engine.
BRAKE/TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK
system, on Prizm models equipped with automatic
transmissions, requires drivers to depress the brake
pedal to shift the transmission out of Park.
Optional
4-WHEEL ANTILOCK BRAKES (ABS) automatically
modulate brake pressure to the front and rear wheels
during hard braking situations, helping the driver to
maintain steering control and reduce wheel lockup.
(See page 9 for more information.)
OCCUPANT PROTECTION FEATURES
Standard
NEXT GENERATION DRIVER AND FRONT-PASSENGER
AIR BAGS* inflate with reduced speed and deployment
force, helping to reduce the risk of deployment
injury. Even with Next Generation air bags, however,
never place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front
seat of any vehicle with an active air bag.
