This car has drained our bank account and caused my wife to lose her job based off its unreliability!!! 2 turbo chargers, a complete engine block, water pump, intake manifold, cataytic convertor, idle tensioner assembly and serpentine belt in the last 14 months alone.... if i sold it i wouldnt be able to sleep knowing what a terrible car i would be dumping on some poor soul... i have been a Chevy man my whole life but they have lost my business the engineering on this car is so bad that a 2 dollar pcv valve will break loose from the plastic tit it resides on in the intake and cause you to replace the WHOLE INTAKE ($300.00) as well as tear up your valve cover i would not wish this car on my worst enemy!!! GM needs to bail out all of us poor saps who purchased this retched bank acct draining joke of a car!!! They laugh all the way to the bank seemingly engineering simple inexpensive parts to fail miserably while incorporating them into parts that cost several hundred dollars to replace DO NOT PURCHASE ONE OF THESE THE TOW TRUCK EXPENSES ALONE WILL BREAK YOUR BANK ACCT

I was never a fan of Chevy products except their trucks until now. I looked at a Chevy Cruze and really fell in love. So many great options and fully loaded for under 23K. This car easily averages over 30mpg with a mix of city and highway driving. Can be as high as 44 mpg with a lot of highway driving, even at 75mph. Chevy really did great with this car and hope they keep it up for the future!
Worst car I have ever owned

I love the look and interior of the car, beautiful. It has pretty good acceleration, but lags and the turbo sounds like a weedeater. The weird jumping forward while braking is kinda scary. At 50k miles driving down the highway the turbo blew- without warning. No lights came on until about 10 minutes later, the famous catch all- stabilitrac light. Folllowed by a bevy of every light in the car. The turbo also caused the engine to blow. Pulled into an NTB (nearest thing) they looked at for $100 determined it was something to do with engine- so warranty. Towed it to dealer. After some run around, turning in every maintenance record- they decide to replace engine and turbo. Then would not reimburse me for the tow or the $100 fee I paid at NTB- very long BS story even after I gave them receipts. 2 days after I got it back- the car would not start. I panicked, called dealer and had it towed again. Guess what- just the battery went dead. So, not warranty and would not pay for tow. Six months now- on the brand NEW engine- coil pack has gone bad, not warranty and the coolant hose is leaking- not warranty. DONE!

I travel on business frequently and rent lots of cars in this category. The Chevy Cruze beats the pants off the Toyota Corolla and Nissan Sentra in EVERY area. It looks and handles great. It has excellent pickup. The interior seems much nicer than its class and way more comfortable too. I wish the rental company would dump the imports and only carry this car. I choose it over the Malibu too. Way to go Chevy.

Edmunds did not have choice of 1LT with 6-speed auto, but that is what I own with RS package. The car delivers great value and performs way better than others in the class. Good ride, great power, great gas mileage, and good looks. Average 28 mpg in local commute with 38-42 on the highway with 87 octane. Suggest using mid-grade or premium for highway driving as the turbo will perform better with higher octane. I have had no problems at 7000 miles in 6 months. The complaints about the sleeping shifting are due to the gas saving transmission linkage allowing the car to coast increasing fuel economy, all cars will be going with this technology.
