Chevrolet Code 130R Concept
The Code 130R Concept is an aggressive-looking, rear-wheel-drive four-passenger coupe with throwback Chevy styling. The metallic red compact rides on matte gold wheels and features iconic Chevy styling cues like fender flares and a crossflag emblem.
It’s all modern under the hood, however. Chevy paired a turbocharged engine with GM’s eAssist start-stop mild-hybrid functionality, blending turbo performance and start-stop fuel efficiency. The concept uses a version of the Cruze Eco’s engine, the 1.4-liter turbo Ecotec. Chevy estimates it would make about 150 horsepower.
