CHEVROLET CRUZE BRINGS MIDSIZE CAR PRESENCE TO THE COMPACT CAR SEGMENT

The U.S. production version of the Chevrolet Cruze,  delivers many segment-leading features and details that challenge preconceived notions about what a compact car can be in North America.
 
The Cruze also affirms Chevrolet’s commitment to building refined, fuel-efficient vehicles using new, small-displacement four-cylinder engines. It is expected to deliver segment-leading fuel economy with a new Ecotec 1.4L I-4 turbo with variable valve timing – including up to 40 mpg on the highway with a high-efficiency model.
 
“Cruze is already a hit across Europe and Asia and now, it’s coming to America to challenge the status quo,” said Jim Campbell, general manager, Chevrolet. “Along with the Volt electric vehicle, Cruze is the latest tangible example of how Chevrolet is working to bring new products to market that range from gas-friendly to gas-free.”
