2026 Chevrolet Groove Debuts in the UAE with Fresh Design, More Tech, and Turbo Power

Abu Dhabi : Chevrolet has unveiled the updated 2026 Groove SUV in the UAE. It features new styling, improved interior tech, and a turbocharged engine and the target is young, first-time buyers.

Refreshed Exterior for a Sportier Feel

There is a sharp design update for the new Groove’s LT and RS trims. They have reworked the front bumper, grille, and overall stance so it appears more sporty. The RS trim takes it a further step with:

• Two-tone roof.
• Black exterior accents.
• Unique wheels.

Customers have the options to pick from six new exterior colors. The RS interior has black leatherette seats with red stitching, while the LT is more with grey cloth.

Interior Comfort with Practical Design

On the inside, the Groove still has its practical five-seat layout but now has:

• Improved rear legroom.
• 60/40 split-folding rear seats.
• Up to 1,120 litres of cargo space when seats are folded.

This means it is suitable for commuting to the city and outings during weekends.

Turbocharged Performance for Daily Drives

Under the hood, the trims have a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine that produces 145 hp and 255 Nm of torque. They pair this with a CVT and front-wheel drive. There is also boost in torque to help ensure smoother drives in urban spaces and better acceleration when needed.
