Chevrolet Lumina SS (2007)






Overview:

The overall design of the Lunina is focused on the theme of poise and stance. The positioning of the four wheels closer to the corners give it an authoritative stand. Its visual strength lies in the bold body-to-glass proportions; balancing dynamic form and design elements, giving the perception that the car is smaller. Minimised gaps and margins result in visibly greater quality, fit and finish. Subtle sporting details such as fender belts and dual exhaust outlets pay tribute to the manufacturer's motorsport heritage. The interior themes revolve around function, luxury and performance conveying the sports car cockpit effect. A fresh looking interior is of superior standards with impeccable quality. To minimise distraction the controls have been intelligently designed so that the primary information is placed in front of the driver in a display within the instrument cluster. The Lumina also sports red illumination with sport instrumentation complimented by a high mounted auxiliary display above the centre vents. The colour and trim of the Lumina SS comprises of carefully selected finishes materials and textures with lasting charm. The soft trim makes use of fabric leather and carpet with new grain textures that enhance surface vision and touch with emphasis on quality. Modern fine metallic paints define smooth surfaces, while the jewelled modern satin chrome highlights demonstrate functionality and purpose. Supple and luxurious, perforated leather constructions give the seat and door trim added class while the new seats allow greater flexibility and comfort.
