Vehicle Type Compact Sedan Common owner praise-points include a comfortable and pleasant ride, higher-than-expected onboard space, good throttle response and mileage from the small turbo engine, and a quiet and refined drive. History/Description Replacing the Cobalt and competing with the Honda Civic , Hyundai Elantra , Ford Fo

The Chevrolet Cruze Diesel intends to give shoppers yet another fuel-saving alternative in the small car segment... A few years back, the Cruze Eco, with its six-speed stick, special final-drive ratio, weight reduction and extra-greasy aerodynamics, turned fuel-mileage near the top of anything I’d ever driven: just 6 l/100 km. For where and h

With the all-new Cruze Hatchback, Chevrolet is hoping for a buyer that is younger than the sedan, more active, but also more hip. With that buyer in mind, they introduced the model to us with a presentation at Jack White's Third Man Records. The record store and studio is on the cutting edge of hip and cool, in an historically creative neighbourhoo

Sometimes you have to feel for a car. I’m not sure how or why, but the Chevrolet Cruze had dropped off our radars a bit in recent times. It isn’t one of the automotive industry darlings, nor does it seem to resonate strongly with internet forums. The Cruze is actually a very strong contender, surprisingly so, and all of the refinements in thi

Everyone remembers (fondly?) his or her first car. The older you are, the more entertaining the story of yours will likely be. While I’m hardly “old”, my first car was a “Fire Engine Red” 1997 Chevrolet Cavalier, endearingly referred to as “Little Toot” by friends and family due to its hilariously puny-sounding horn that couldn’t scare a squirrel.

Chevrolet launched its all-new Cruze sedan last year, and as a follow up we get a stylish hatchback version for 2017. As this move parallels what’s happening in the Honda Civic camp, perhaps the functional five-door is finding favour south of the border again. Yes, it’s well-appointed for the money. We Canadians, of course, have always

General Motors' Chevrolet brand is keen on picking up the pieces of VW's diesel emissions scandal and turning them into a domestic diesel success story. That's the word from GM's Dan Nicholson, vice-president for global propulsion systems, who told Automotive News that Chevrolet will bring diesel power back to its Cruze compact next year.

Looks aren’t everything, but they are one of the most compelling reasons to consider a Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback. And yes, this car is still a bombshell with an engineering degree, as noted in our five-door compact comparison test early in 2017, with enough technological smarts on the infotainment and safety fronts to match and likely surpass its

Barely three weeks ago, rumours flew that Chevrolet was planning to add a hatchback to its compact Cruze line, and that speculation was correct. Chevrolet today introduced the car ahead of its official unveiling next week at Detroit's North American International Auto Show. Riding on the same platform as the 2016 Cruze sedan , the new hatch s

If small cars are finding themselves increasingly choked-out by the crossover headlock, doomed to languish on dealer lots while practicality-minded families go all-in on SUVs, someone forgot to tell the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback . Well into its second model year, this five-door compliment to the Cruze sedan continues to carve out a relevant

Vehicle Type Compact sedan/hatchback History/Description Just one year after a refresh, an all-new Chevrolet Cruze hit the market for 2016. A competitor to models like the Honda Civic, Ford Focus, Kia Forte, Dodge Dart, and Nissan Sentra, the Cruze was a smaller economy-oriented car that was big on safety features, connectivity, and select

Unaffected by harsh winters, the curvaceous roads on the undulating countryside hills surrounding Nashville, Tennessee render a driver’s Elysium – a great place to test the improved dynamics of the sleeker, thoroughly (and some would say finally ) updated and upgraded 2016 Chevrolet Cruze . Amid stiff competition in the compact market, this secon

According to Alan Batey, Global Chevrolet Brand Chief and President, GM North America, the vehicle that consumers most readily connect with the Chevrolet brand in the global market is the Cruze. It is, in fact, Chevrolet's most popular car worldwide, and for 2016 the Cruze receives a complete makeover with the objective of leading the segment in al

Detroit, Michigan – Following the successful launch of the new 2016 Chevrolet Cruze sedan, General Motors’ number one brand has just announced a new hatchback variant of the model. The hatchback treatment not only gives the Cruze family a sporty-looking new member, but a more practical one too, with a cargo area that offers 643 L of space tha

Chevrolet and Transport Canada have announced a recall on the 2016 Cruze to reroute a wiring harness that could be damaged by the parking brake. In 657 cars, the foot-operated parking brake could damage a wiring harness leading to the body control module (BCM), an electronic control unit that looks after the operation of items like power win
