Forget about what compact cars have been, Cruze is everything a compact car should be. It gives you more of everything you need and deserve from efficiency to safety, features to styling. Conventional compact wisdom is challenged with one simple word: more.

It's designed to fit seamlessly into your ever-evolving life. Cruze offers more cargo space, more safety with best-in-class 10 standard air bags, and more miles per gallon in the Cruze Eco. At 42 MPG, it's the best highway mileage of any gas engine in America. Your wallet is going to thank you. All around, it's more of what your life needs.

Exterior – An extension of personal style. Cruze exterior design gives you the presence of a more expensive car with its beveled hood, sharp angles and taut curves. Centered by the strong, attention-grabbing Chevrolet grille, its swept-back lamps lead the eye across its sculpted fenders, around the sides and back again. Bottom line? Don't be surprised when people stop to admire.

And sure, Cruze leaves a lasting impression with its bold exterior design, but don't forget those curves, lines and angles do more than just please the eye and turn heads. They improve the aerodynamics of Cruze, in the end optimizing fuel efficiency and helping you get the most out of each drop of fuel.

Interior – Generous room and comfort. It's called a compact, but that just doesn't seem fair to other compact cars. Its cavernous interior not only has more passenger room than Ford Focus sedan and Toyota Corolla, it beats them out with more cargo space too. And Cruze is smart about how to use all that space with 60/40 folding rear seats so you can find the room for larger items. There's even refined touches such as rich colors, bold dials and details like available leather-appointed seats that give Cruze a premium feel. You can even enjoy peace and quiet while driving. Cruze is designed to keep outside noise outside with a triple-sealed, acoustic-laminated glass windshield. When you're inside Cruze, you're wrapped in amenities uncommon among compact cars. No wonder it left an impression on the editors at Ward's AutoWorld. They went on to name Cruze as one of Ward's 10 Best Interiors of 2011, noting its sharp appearance and exceptional value.

Fuel Efficiency – Get MMPG: More miles per gallon. Cruze takes you farther for less. With an incredible 42 MPG highway, advanced aerodynamics and its 1.4L turbocharged engine, Cruze Eco gives you more fuel efficiency without asking you to skimp on performance. And at 42 MPG highway, Cruze Eco offers the best highway fuel efficiency of any gas engine in America. That's better highway fuel efficiency than the 2012 Ford Focus sedan, 2012 Hyundai Elantra and the 2011 Toyota Corolla. That's what happens when Chevrolet engineers approach every inch of a vehicle to improve its efficiency—it rises above the rest.

Technology. From to-do list to to-done list, the 2012 Cruze offers up an extensive array of technology features to give you more conveniences throughout your day. Cruze has the latest in mobile technology and safety with the help of OnStar®, standard for the first six months. And let's face it, you want to enjoy every moment, even when driving.
