2016 Chevy Cruze

A TURBOCHARGED ENGINE AND NEW AERODYNAMIC STYLING MEAN THE 2016 CHEVROLET CRUZE WILL TAKE YOU FARTHER THAN EVER BEFORE

Though it comes from what was already one of Chevrolet's best-selling and most fuel efficient model lines, the all-new 2016 Cruze was put through an extensive body remodeling and powertrain redesign process for an across the board improvement in both performance and economy. The result is a compact sedan that is both lighter and more aerodynamic than ever before, while a new 1.4L turbocharged I-4 gives it the punch one rarely finds in a car in its class. With a starting MSRP of $16,620 and up to 40 mpg highway fuel economy, the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze is also a versatile vehicle that can do wonders for any driver's budget.

NEW 2016 CHEVROLET CRUZE FEATURES

• Snappy power that's provided by a turbocharged 1.4L ECOTEC® engine that belts out 153 horses and can attain up to 40 mpg highway, with a 6-speed manual transmission standard on the L Sedan trim and either a 6-speed automatic or 6-speed manual available on the 2016 Cruze LS Sedan
• A 1.6L diesel powertrain that, due sometime in calendar year 2016, should easily top 40 mpg highway
• Improved handling and acceleration due to 250 lbs in weight reduction from the 2015 Cruze, with a redesigned body for enhanced aerodynamics
• Available leather-appointed heated front and rear seats, with 60/40 split rear seats for enhanced versatility
• Safety that's maximized by 10 air bags, 4-wheel antilock brakes, and available Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Keep Assist, and Forward Collision Alert
• Standard 7-inch diagonal center stack Chevrolet MyLink' touch screen display that's compatible with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto® phone-mirroring
• Internet access for everyone in the car due to a built-in 4G LTE Wifi® hotspot that can connect with up to 7 compatible devices

NEW ENGINE, NEW LOOK, NEW CAR: THE 2016 CHEVROLET CRUZE IS LEANER, CLEANER, AND MEANER THAN EVER BEFORE

As part of the complete design overhaul the Chevy Cruze received for model year 2016, the line's old standard 1.8L, naturally aspirated 4-cylinder and optional iron-block turbo 1.4L have been replaced by a turbocharged aluminum-block 1.4L ECOTEC® motor. The result is not only an increase to 153 horsepower that doesn't come at the expense of fuel economy, but also significant weight savings up front. Mass, in fact, has been shed across the new 2016 Chevrolet Cruze, as the model is now up to 250 lbs lighter than its predecessor. This not only improves the 2016 Cruze's handling, but also gives it the athleticism to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 8 seconds. While the average Chevy Cruze driver may not be racing for a checkered flag anytime soon, this improved power-to-weight ratio allows for safer driving on the highway, especially when passing semi trucks is necessary.

A RADICALLY IMPROVED INTERIOR FOR BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS

As part of the recent redesign, the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze has been fitted with an all-new D2 front-drive architecture. Beyond an improvement in handling, this change has increased the overall length of the Cruze by 2.7 inches, a fact that is noticeably felt by passengers in the rear seats. Not only are they now able to stretch out while on a long drive, but the added space even enables these passengers to sit comfortably while using a laptop or large touchpad device. Given that the Chevrolet Cruze 2016 is bringing to Chevy dealers like Apple Chevrolet comes with built-in 4G LTE Internet Wifi® hotspot capability, this extra space is sure to turn what is a comfortable convenience for some families into a viable mobile office for professionals. Drivers have not been left out of the advantages yielded by the new architecture and dimensions, either, as the 2016 Cruze LS Sedan trim, both Automatic and Manual, now features an elongated and improved console with armrest.

SAFETY FEATURES THAT ARE NORMALLY FOUND ON A MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE CAR ARE YET MORE TRAITS THAT MAKES THE 2016 CRUZE A CLASS LEADER

Features like Rear Cross Traffic Alert, which uses radar and a standard Rear Vision Camera to alert the driver to vehicles that are crossing toward the rear, a Lane Keep Assist that gently nudges a wayward vehicle back into its proper lane, and Forward Collision Alert are the type of smart safety features that are normally only offered with large, expensive cars, however they're available with the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze. The Forward Collision Alert system that's offered with the 2016 Cruze is even more impressive than what's incorporated into other models because, with both Tailgating and Crash Imminent Alert, it can actually help to prevent some accidents. When considered alongside the Chevy Cruze's standard 10 air bags and other safety systems, the overall result is a car that's perfect for both family and everyday commuter use.
