The Cruze might be going on 6 years old

But it's still a rather handsome car.

Shame they ruined it with the 2015 face lift.

And it has what I think is one of the nicer interiors in the segment.

I'd love to know why this economy car has a nicer set of gauges than the Cadillac ATS.

And I'm pretty sure those round air vents are out of a Captiva/Vue.

Now, they just need to get more than 138 horsepower under the hood. Even though really that's probably plenty.

The Cruze was released for MY2011. How is it 6 years old?

It's been on sale in various other parts of the world since 2008

I have to agree. I've always thought of this as a rather handsome car. Its a shame that GM didnt see fit to bring back an SS trim.

Did you have the hatch in the US?

Hopefully next generation!

(Probably not)

Sadly, no.

Because Americans are terrified of hatchbacks unless they're lifted 5 feet off the ground apparently.

I will give the Cruze credit for being the only American car I can think of that is available with a diseasel.

It was the best looking of all the Cruze imo, plus it had a cool name (Sport6)

Too bad it's auto only and can only be had loaded to the brim with options.

You just said "too bad" followed by two good things.

A lot of people don't like the looks apparently. I am not one of those people though.

Unf.

What if I want a model that would be comparable to an 1LT with cloth seats n' stuff? Cause the diesel can be had for like $28k. For a Cruze.

Then you have to buy a gas burner.

When it came out, I liked it a lot, but I have seen that smokey headlights are extremely common on these.

I don't think I've ever seen one with smoked lights.

Really?? Here every single one has them

They might be detering people with the price on purpose. $28k for a Cruze is a lot, most won't go for that. So if the new diesel is problematic, we won't take too big a hit on it for warranty work, and the auto media might not even cover a developing story if the defective batch is small enough.

I've been in one. Its one of the few cars that I'd prefer to ride in the backseat of. The interior is very nice and luxurious, but because of the center console the front seat is incredibly cramped

This is the best car offered by Chevrolet in India IMO. Want to see it upgraded with more power. Currently powered by a 1.2-litre 166 PS/360 Nm engine.

The 2016 Cruze launched in China, and maybe headed to the US, look.... meh.

Best looking compact by far because of one color: rainforest green

I disagree on the crampedness. I'm 6 foot, 230ish lbs, and it's all pretty solid muscle. My waist for pants is a 38. I find the front seats of the Cruze very comfortable, and I'm not squeezed at all by them. I've been in a Sonic sedan and I was getting crushed by the seats in it.

Thank you. I also think they look damn good. I love mine. I have grey carbon fiber look vinyl overlays for the gold Chevy emblems, which I think really cleans it up.

I really want to get some rims for it. Something like either of these. Also, I would like to drop it a bit.
