The Cruze Eco offers up to 42 MPG hwy. This is the highest fuel economy of any gas-powered engine. The Cruze offers segment-leading safety with a 5-star Overall Crash Test Rating and was recognized by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety as a2011 Top Safety Pick. The Cruze offers a best-in-class 10 standard air bags. The Cruze has more interior and cargo room than Civic, Corolla or Focus. The Cruze offers the convenience of the myChevrolet and OnStar MyLink mobile apps. The Cruze was engineered to be extremely quiet with 30 distinct acoustic treatments. Cruze offers both 6-speed manual and automatic transmissions. The Cruze 1.4L turbo engine provides 148 lb.-ft. of torque at a low 1,850 rpm, providing a great off-line feel. The Cruze has standard XM Radio with three trial months and standard OnStar with 6 months of Turn-by-Turn Navigation. The Cruze LTZ was found to have superior cornering and slalom performance to a BMW 328i on dry pavement.

I hope all this information helps you in making your choice.

Now a few months down the road, I'm wondering if you purchased a Cruze, crashhat69. If so, how do you like it?

Default I have a 12 1LT RS

This car is a grate looking car. But looking at the steering wheels falling off , Fires, heater core issues and transmission issues Im not so shure about it any more. And looking how the heater core is mounted less than 2 inches from your leg when pressing the gas peddle let hope it dose not blow the plastic clips holding it together. Because the computers in the car will be fried and your leg will be burnt very bad. And for the people who have the coolant smell I would push for a buyback. because you and your family breathing in this is (toxic) headache Nausea vomiting is a sign you need to get to your dealer than your doctor. Dogs and cats that drink it from leaks will normally die so if you have leaks and pets keep them away. The sweet smell attracts them. And if it kills dogs and cats guess what your ingesting it also by Breathing it in and touching seats dashboards and eating or putting your hands in your mouth ect. and once in carpets its super hard to get out if possible at all.

I have a 2011 Cruze 2LT. It is a great running car. No problems with it. The only thing I don't like is that visibility is limited when backing up. It does have an alarm when you get too close to something.

I own 2011 Chev cruze and it is the biggest piece of junk that I have ever owned. GM likes to build up the cruze but some of the hype is lies. I have 32,000 miles on cruze which I bought new june 2011. I like the way cruze handles and performance on the highway . Get 35 mpg at interstate speeds. But don't expect it to last very long. Issues /brakes/trans leaks&jerky shifts/coolant leaks water pump&heater & unknown areas/extreme rattles/wind noise?
