This factory service and repair manual for the 2012 Chevrolet Matiz is written for one car in one specification. The engine is a 1.0L inline-four of 61 cubic inches, single overhead cam, naturally aspirated, gasoline-fueled; the body is a four-door hatchback; the trim is Base. Nothing branches, so the manual can carry a single set of specifications and torque values from the cylinder head down through the transaxle and running gear without qualifying every figure by engine or equipment level.
