Statistics recently issued by the Malta Transport Authority have quoted that during 2004 Chevrolet Malta held the highest market share per capita, among all its European counterparts, and that Chevrolet gained just under 6% of the total passenger vehicles market in Malta for 2004.

"Overall Chevrolet European sales have increased by 45%, reaching 160,000 vehicles this year," according to Geraldo Altieri, a representative of Chevrolet, European Division, who was recently in Malta to mark Chevrolet's first anniversary in Malta. Chevrolet is also launching the 2005 Chevrolet Nubira (Lacetti) Station Wagon.

Chevrolet officials report that the Chevy Nubira Station wagon is powered by a choice of 1.6- and 1.8-litre 16-valve gas engines. The Nubira comes fully loaded, including air-conditioning, ABS, twin airbags and factory Chevrolet roof racks.
