2012 Chevrolet Cruze ECO
Key Takeaways
- Even with eco changes, plenty of pep from the turbo engine and six-speed manual
- Handles and rides well for a fuel-economy special
- Interior trim doesn't suffer for efficiency's sake
What We Think
Fuel economy, rather than luxury, is the domain of the Cruze Eco, which features mechanical and aerodynamic changes to achieve 40 mpg highway.
The 2012 Chevrolet Cruze Eco gets all the fuel-efficiency options, such as 17-inch wheels with ultra-low-rolling-resistance tires and a unique front bumper to reduce wind resistance. A six-speed manual transmission is standard, as is the 1.4-liter turbocharged engine. Stability and traction control are standard.
