GM Launches Cruze Interactive Timeline

We must admit, while reading GM's press release regarding what you will read in the lines below, we couldn't help to ask: who would be interested in knowing the exact time when the Chevy Cruze did something, anything?

And then it came to us: maybe you're at work and have nothing to do (it happens, trust us), so this timeline of theirs can turn out to be an interesting game. Why?

Well, there are 26 dots on the Cruze timeline, each representing some big achievement for either Chevrolet or its Cruze. So that makes for a possible 26 questions and answers to put into a Q&A game, at the end of which you, or the colleague you played the game with, will have to buy drinks...

Or perhaps you really care that in April 2009 the Cruze was introduced in China... If so, the lines below are for you:

“Cruze is already a hit across Europe and Asia and now, it’s coming to America to challenge the status quo,” Jim Campbell, general manager at Chevrolet said in a release. “It’s the latest tangible example of how Chevrolet is working to bring new products to market that range from gas-friendly to gas-free.”

Luckily for us, the Cruze turned out to be somewhat of a hit, selling some 100,000 units since its introduction in January 2009. Otherwise, the 22 dots would have had to signal something like "May 2009: first Chevy sold in Australia"; "August 2009: second Chevy sold in Australia..."

Almost forgot. The timeline game can be found here.
