Chevrolet Code 130R

The Chevrolet Code 130R was a compact two door, four seat sports coupe concept that Chevrolet revealed at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit on 9 January 2012, beside the front drive Tru 140S. It drew on the 1962 Chevrolet Nova and was aimed at younger buyers as a car that might sell for about 20,000 US dollars. Joe Baker designed it. It used a 150 horsepower turbocharged 1.4 litre Ecotec four cylinder engine with eAssist technology, rear wheel drive and a six speed automatic, on the General Motors Alpha platform shared with the Cadillac ATS. Chevrolet built three show cars, in red, sky blue and slate gray, all on gold wheels. Showgoers favoured it over the Tru 140S, but it was never built, though the sixth generation Camaro carried over some of its styling.
