2019 Chevrolet Cruze trim to buy?

Considering the Bump in features for 2019, most people who are on a budget will be happy with the base L Variant while the LT will be the pick for users looking for some exclusivity.

Engine and Performance
7.2/10

The 2019 Cruze is the only one in this comparison, to be offered only in a Turbocharged Avatar. This Engine has been tuned by GM for efficiency rather than performance.

However, in no way is the Performance dull as the 1.4L Inline 4 Motor in the Cruze delivers 153HP and a massive 177lbs-ft of Torque.

The Acceleration from a dead halt, isn't electric as one would expect from turbocharged engines but gets the Cruze to rev above 2000rpm and see the Turbochargers spool up, giving a better performance.

Transmission duties in the 2019 Cruze are handled by a 6 Speed Automatic Unit. This unit does not shift to the top gear as soon as you step on the gas from a stop and does hold up gears when you are doing hill climbs. The Gears are well calibrated and when on the highway, the transmission ensures that the Car reaches Highway speeds without much effort.

2019 Chevrolet Cruze Acceleration

The Turbo bred motor in the Cruze delivers average acceleration from a Dead Stop. The Turbo Lag adds to the lethargy of the engine and in theory, the Cruze has a lot going against it.

In reality though, the Turbocharger supports the cause of the Cruze in 0-60 runs as the extra boost from the same helps the Cruze get to the 60 mph the fastest among its Naturally Aspirated rivals. The Turbo Boost however isn't good enough to make it the fastest in quarter mile runs and is beaten eventually, by the Mazda3 Sedan.

2019 Chevrolet Cruze Ride and Handling

The ride inside the 2019 Cruze will be comfortable in most conditions for most people. The Cruze tends to absorb Speed Bumps and undulations well while not being too soft on the ride front.

The Cruze however shines on the Highway and on Twisty Roads. The Suspension is well tuned to take corners well and provides very little body roll, aiding driver confidence. The light sporty steering responds to the smallest of inputs on the highway and provides good feedback when tackling sharp bends or high speeds.

2019 Chevrolet Cruze Braking

The Brakes inside the Cruze are pretty potent to say the least. They offer a good feel and respond well to the pressure applied by the driver. They are in no way Feather Touch in feedback but they do reduce speed drastically when sufficient pressure is applied.

The Standard 4 Wheel ABS and Traction Control with Electronic Stability Program and Electronic Brake Force Distribution ensures the brakes don't lock up during panic braking situations and provide stability to the Sedan.

Fuel Economy
8.5/10

Chevrolet ditched the Naturally Aspirated Engine in the Cruze and moved to a Turbocharged Version in favor of achieving good fuel economy. This has yielded good returns to the Cruze as it delivers one of the best Fuel Economy figures in the segment.

The 13.7 Gallon Fuel Tank in the Cruze combined with a 33 MPG combined figure gives the Cruze an amazing 452.1 mile range which means lower gas expenses and less trips to the gas station.

Interior
8.2/10

Step into the Interiors of the Cruze and you will be welcomed by a Black and Brown theme in front of you on the dashboard. The dashboard has a lot of buttons for various controls like Audio, AC etc. The center of the dashboard houses a big 7" Touchscreen Infotainment System and a few buttons to control the same.

The Cruze is a compact Sedan by dimensions and the class it sits in. However, most people will find the interiors anything but compact. There is generous amount of Headroom for passengers in the front and rear while the leg room will be adequate for most passengers. Ingress and Egress isn't much of an issue as well courtesy of the High Roof and the wide door openings.

5 passengers can be made to sit in the Cruze but making 3 adults sit at the back won't be a good proposition for long drives. The Rear seats are narrower as compared to segment leaders like the Honda Civic and the raised center tunnel furthermore reduces the practicality of the middle seat in the rear.

2019 Chevrolet Cruze Cargo Capacity

The Cargo Capacity in the 2019 Chevrolet Cruze ranks among the best in class. The loading floor is flat and coupled with the big cargo area helps the Cruze to gulp in plenty of luggage and cargo. There are numerous Cubby Holes and Small Storage Spaces in the Cabin of the cruze as well.

The Trunk lid is big and opens to reveal a big cargo space. The Spare Tire in the LT and the Premier trim eats up some of the big cargo space but the 60/40 split rear seats pave way for some more useful storage space.

2019 Chevrolet Cruze Infotainment System

The Infotainment System inside the 2019 Cruze has to be one of its biggest highlights. The 7" Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System is it's rendition of Cadillac's CUE infotainment system and is standard on all trims. It's intuitive, easy to learn, operate, understand and has all the functionalities one would ever need from a Car infotainment System.

The Chevrolet Cruze, starting from its Inception has been one of the most handsome looking sedans in the market. With the 2019 edition, Chevrolet has infused some small changes in the Cruze to keep it fresh against the competition.

There are sharp lines running across the side of the Cruze which start from the Hood and end near the Rear Fenders adding visual appeal to the Car. New 18" Alloys also accentuate the overall visual character of the Cruze while adding to the high speed stability of the Compact sedan.

Competition
8.0/10

Chevrolet Cruze Sedan vs. Toyota Corolla Sedan

The Chevrolet Cruze has been GM's most selling model ever and the Corolla has been one of the World's most selling cars ever. The Toyota, despite its lower power and torque figure sells because of its stupendous dependability, practicality and efficiency. However, the current crop of buyers aren't just satisfied with Practicality or Frugality. They want all of these but with added performance. The Cruze here presents itself as being able to provide the best of both worlds without compromising on the Reliability aspect and adding the performance aspect.

Chevrolet Cruze Sedan vs. Honda Civic Sedan

The Honda Civic has been a runaway success in the US with its superb performance and ton loads of Space inside the Cabin. The Honda also has a great resale value and the value of the Civic depreciates way slower than any other compact sedan. The Civic also has better power output than the Cruze. However, the Cruze offers a better Mileage and overall a better range than the Sedan while the turbocharged Engine allows the Cruze to produce a massive amount of Torque. This makes the Cruze a better mile muncher and a better tourer than the Civic.

Chevrolet Cruze Sedan vs. Mazda Mazda3 Sedan

The Mazda 3 has been always known for its good looking interiors and great driving dynamics. The Engine inside the Mazda is one of the refined in its class and has a lively driving character.

Mazda however is yet to refresh the Mazda 3 sedan for 2019 and the Mazda 3 is starting to show its age. The New Age Cruze comes closest to the Mazda in terms of Power and betters it with its Torque figure. The Cruze also has a better feature list and a great mileage figure makes the Cruze a better tourer.

Final Verdict

Chevrolet has done its best to keep the Cruze updated in 2019 against the rapidly evolving competition. The updated Instrument Console gives a fresh lease of life to the Interiors. Standard Features like the 7" Touchscreen infotainment system, 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot and 10 Airbags creates segment benchmarks in terms of equipment offered.

On the whole, the 2019 Cruze offers great Performance, Mileage and a great set of features built in as standard. With a 5year/60,000 mile warranty, the Cruze also offers great satisfaction to the user. So, if you are in the market looking for a Mile muncher with great Handling Characteristics and Highway manners without being heavy on the pocket, the Chevrolet Cruze seems to fit the bill well.
