Chevrolet Cruze LT 1.8 Review: Cruze missile

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4     The new Chevrolet Cruze is one of the most crucial cars for Chevrolet and its beleaguered parent company General Motors. Is it a much better product than its decidedly staid Optra Magnum predecessor? More importantly, does it have the chops to attract more buyers to the brand?

cons

cons
Chevrolet should improve the power output
cons
could do with bigger rims and tyres.

So should you buy the new Cruze? The answer is an undeniable yes. It is good to drive (inert steering and gruff engine aside), beautifully built, packed with equipment and most importantly of all - does not hurt the wallet with its price tag and reasonable fuel economy.

It is without doubt one of the bow tie brand's best cars to date, and with over 100 orders placed in less than a week after it went on sale, it seems that many buyers out there are cottoning on to its charms...
