Reasonably Priced Diesel: Chevrolet Lacetti

Chevrolet's first diesel engine for the UK market will be a 2.0-litre unit with 119bhp and 207lb ft of torque.

It'll haul the Lacetti from 0-62mph in 9.8 seconds and on to 117mph, or you can drive a little more conservatively to return 58.8mpg in the five-door hatch model, or 52.3mpg in the estate.

Prices and specs will be announced closer to the Lacetti TCDi's launch in the spring of 2007. You can guarantee it'll be lapping our track soon after that.
