Mark Reuss: Chevrolet Cruze coupe may show up… soon

Earlier today, president of General Motors North America, Mark Reuss held a live Webchat to talk about the state of GM North America.

Besides a bunch of industry question Reuss was asked whether or not there will be a Chevrolet Cruze coupe in the future. He responded:

2 door cruze is a nice idea, and it may show up in the global market. As we have 2 door Cobalts currently, NA would naturally look at a Cruze 2 door, but I believe our small car portfolio will be WAY beyond what it is now, so a 2 door something still is needed.
