Dressed To Thrill
The 2016 Chevy Cruze gets noticed with fresh new exterior styling that's impressive from any angle. Looking like it costs thousands more, the Cruze wears an expressive, sculpted Euro-style body with fluid, contemporary lines that accentuate aerodynamic efficiency. According to Bengt Halvorson of TheCarConnection.com, the 2016 Cruze's styling "…takes advantage of wind-tunnel testing done for the Volt, yet inherits some of the chiseled, handsome look…that's been introduced in the larger Malibu." "It's lower, leaner, and sportier, as well as a significant three inches added to the overall length and an inch more wheelbase than its predecessor," adds Halvorson. "This translates to two inches of additional rear legroom, with the Cruze offering more rear knee room than the Ford Focus or Hyundai Elantra."
Surprisingly Well Appointed Interior
Whether heading uptown for a night out or down the highway for a weekend getaway, the new Cruze's upgraded and roomier interior gets you there in a style that doesn't scrimp on quality or creature comforts. Bengt Halvorson of TheCarConnection.com says, "Since the Cruze is a global model, selling as an upmarket sedan in some markets, it carries an ‘upscale ambience’ inside, with a dual cockpit look and more fine details."
The Cruze's interior also gets high marks for its more spacious interior. No less than Consumer Reports says, "... The new Cruze strikes us as a big step forward. One of the biggest updates comes in the rear seat, where passengers no longer need Japanese subway pushers to cram them inside. It’s one of the roomiest back seats in the class, with plenty of leg and foot room even for six-footers. In fact, the rear seats look like they have more legroom than Chevy’s next larger sedan, the Malibu…Some versions even pamper rear-seat occupants with their own seat heaters — a rare treat in a small car."
