Customers at Chevy Dealer in Jacksonville Love New Concept Coupes

Chevy JacksonvilleThe Code 130R and the Tru 140S, the two newest concept coupes from Chevrolet, made their debut at the 2012 North American International Auto Show. The younger generation of customers going to our Chevy dealer in Jacksonville, Nimnicht Chevrolet, is already talking about both of these models.

Younger Chevy enthusiasts in Jacksonville will be happy to know that Chevrolet actually went out and polled the next generation of shoppers and designed the Code 130R and Tru 140S based on their opinions. One factor that was important according to their research is that drivers want a performance coupe form that offers sedan-sized functionality and seating for up to four.

When shopping at our Chevy dealer in Jacksonville, consumers look to have as many updated interior connectivity and convenience features as possible. Both the Code130R and the Tru 140S deliver in that department. Just a few of the offerings possessed by the coupes include Chevrolet MyLink smart phone integration, WiFi capability, a heads-up display and outstanding storage inside.

Fuel economy is also quite important to the customers who go to our Chevy dealer in Jacksonville. The 1.4L Ecotec turbocharged four-cylinder engine will provide motorists the ability to get an estimated 40 mpg while driving on the highway while exhibiting the capability to produce approximately 150 hp. The engine can be paired with either six-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission.

Young Chevy Drivers in Jacksonville Enjoy These Concept Coupes


Even though the same engine powers these concept autos, there are still clear differences between the two. Starter-based stop-start technology is equipped with the Tru 140S coupe’s engine and eAssist technology can be found in the Code 130R’s four cylinder.

The outward appearances that these cars possess are also different since Chevrolet wanted to provide a choice for drivers. The rear-wheel-drive Code 130R showcases an aggressive front fascia, a straight body side, Chevy fender flates, a Chevy crossflag emblem and matte anodized gold wheels.

Meanwhile, the front-wheel-drive Tru 140S has a more athletic appearance. Based off of the same platform that the popular Cruze and breakthrough Volt models, this three-door hatchback includes Chevrolet performance chrome wheels with crossflag emblems.
