Cruze On

I own the Cruze 2012 model. Power is now up to a substantial 164bhp with the torque swelling to a meaty 38.7kgm. The primary focus of the engine tweak has been to improve driveability, refinement and fuel efficiency. Upshifts are relatively quick and make the acceleration seem all the more effortless. That said, it isn't particularly engaging. It is still slow to respond to sharp throttle inputs and is sluggish when you want a quick kick down. This means that the new Cruze is still some way off the fit and finish that its German rivals boast of, and for sheer comfort, especially at the rear, the Cruze still can't compete with the best in class.
