2009 Chevrolet Cobalt LT1 Sedan

The Chevrolet Cobalt is a compact car introduced by Chevrolet in 2004 for the 2005 model year. The Cobalt replaced the Cavalier as Chevrolet's compact car.

It is available as both a coupe and sedan and is based upon the GM Delta platform also shared with the Chevrolet HHR, Pontiac G5, Astra (Opel, Vauxhall, Holden, and Saturn marques), and the Opel Zafira (a seven seat MPV). All Cobalts are currently manufactured at GM's Lordstown Assembly plant in Lordstown, Ohio. The EPA classifies the Cobalt as a subcompact car.

Starting in 2009, Chevrolet will launch the Cobalt's global successor the Chevrolet Cruze (based on the new Delta II platform) in Europe with launches in other markets (including the US) to proceed in 2010. The Cruze will be built in multiple locations around the world including the Lordstown Assembly (at which the Cruze will briefly be built alongside the Cobalt until it is completly phased out.)
