"The Cruze's roominess, efficiency, quality and refinement bring Chevrolet into a whole new world of compact cars."
-Cars.com
"When
compared to this segment's traditional leaders, the Honda Civic and
Toyota Corolla, the Cruze is fully competitive (or even better) in terms
of design and driving dynamics."
-Edmunds
"The
accurate steering has good feel and little need for correction. Cruze's
overall handling inspires confidence with minimal body lean in turns.
Braking is smooth and strong with good pedal feel."
-Consumer Guide
"So
does all this fuel Economy focus pay off? More than we thought it
could. Although the EPA rates the Cruze ECO, with the manual gearbox, at
42-MPG (US) highway, we saw noticeably better."
-Popular Mechanics
"Fire
it up and the first thing you notice is what you don't hear. A lot of
engine noise. Chevy did a lot of work on NVH, or noise, vibration and
harshness. When it comes to the matter of a quiet ride the Cruze easily
tops the Civic, Corolla and Sonata."
-MarketWatch
"In
the Cruze, roominess is the word. Its passenger volume is 95 cubic
feet, beating the Ford Focus at 93, the Honda Civic at 91, and the
Toyota Corolla at 92."
-Chicago Tribune
"All
of the gauges and center stack controls are intuitive and easy to reach,
and the optional RS package brings an upgraded gauge cluster with
chrome surrounds and cool blue back light to the dash."
