I had a 17 Cruze LT and I LOVED it! It was definitely one of the best cars I've ever had. Being a young car freak though I've since traded it in for an EcoBoost Mustang and I just recently traded that in for a Mustang GT. However if for some reason I ever had to get rid of the Mustang I would definitely get back into a Cruze.
I am watching this the night before I go out and pick up a 2017 Cruze. Good deal: 8000 miles, and a final price to drive off the lot of just over $13,000. Factory warranty, and extended service plan included. I have high hopes for this car....but then I have been spoiled by my 2006 Grand Prix GT with all the "toys". Going to really miss that car, but with nearly 180,000 miles it is probably time to trade up.
@@adelinethegr8458 Short answer is Yes and Yes. It was kind of sad to see the Pontiac go, but they gave me a very fair trade in on it, which sweetened the deal a little more. Everything kind of fell into place and I drove the Cruze off the lot that afternoon. So after about a year and a half (and nearly 30,000 miles) I still have the Cruze, and still love it. It really is a nice little car.
I have a Summit White 2016.5 Cruze LT just like this one. The auto stop will not engage when the outside temperature is below 4 Celcius (40 F) This is by design. There are other factors that affect whether it kicks or not such as engine temp, battery charge etc... Love this car!
I bought the 2018 model LT approximately 6 months ago. Push button start, power driver's seat, and outer door handle lock/unlock button on all four doors. Beside some minor differences both look just about the same everywhere else. Turn signal flasher is a bit annoying though. lol! Don;t have the acceleration issue he described on my Cruze. Very responsive acceleration. Braking can catch you off guard if you have been driving an older vehicle.
I really like my Chevy Cruze too it's a really nice classic car at a lower bracket for what it is it's pretty upgraded yeah it's a nice car I made a good choice
Haha! That seat lever there actually move the whole care back and forth as seen here when you're demonstrating the seat moving position. JK Nice review.
Thank you for a very thorough walkthrough! My only feedback is I wish you had shown Android Auto/Apply CarPlay, as I see that as a big part of the infotainment system that people may not know about.
seems almost as quiet as an impala i drove. i can tell the ride quality is very firm over the bumps but at least the cruze doesn't crash and bang over them like the impala did, as the impala comes with the bad combo of too-big-wheels and too-small [low-profile] tires resulting in next to no isolation from sharp bumps.
Firm brake at the complete stop engages auto shut off. Light taps on brake leaves car running. Very instant engine restart when u let off the brake pressure.
@@mtdewyx thank you for that piece of information I didn't realize that I just put in LED headlines I like the brightness but I guess I might look into the halogen projector lamps
April/May 2020: Have had this 2017 Cruze since Aug 2018, and have had no issues whatsoever with it. Only upgrade I did was installing the proper HID headlights...which should have actually been in there from the factory. Regular maintenance is essential though. Do not skip out on the oil changes. This car is turbocharged, so keeping the proper, fresh oil in it is essential. Otherwise it is a great little car. Your mileage may vary, but I really like this car. For a single or couple, I would recommend this it. While the Cruze does have good interior space, for a family (2-3 kids and a pet) you might consider something a little larger...just for the extra space.
They have a upgraded starter, so it can handle the start stop and a heavy duty battery. The engine is built to handle the start stop and the transmission goes into a soft neutral with this technology. A cold start is what damages your engine. This technology is not new, it's been around for many years. Other gas powered vehicles have it, including Mercedes, Honda, Cadillac, land/range rover, jaguar, jeep Cherokee, Volvo and Acura. It will be equipped in many more vehicles to come.
Is there a single person that knows how Auto Start/Stop works? I can’t find anything anywhere other than what it’s supposed to do, it doesn’t seem like anyone actual knows how it really works and how reliable it is
I HAD FOUR OF THE PREVIOUS GENERATION CHEVY CRUZES AND FOR ME THEY ALL HAD MAJOR ISSUES THE LAST CRUZE I HAD THE ENGINE HAD TO BE REPLACED . I PRAY THAT THE NEW GENERATION WORKS OUT FOR YOU . THE ONE'S I HAD GOT SHAKEY AT ABOUT 20,000 TO 35,OOO MILES . I ALSO MADE A TH-cam FEATURE ABOUT MY STORY TITLED THE CHEVY CRUZE AND ME MY STORY .
This thing is a total piece of garbage. I bought one and returned it after a week. Where to start? The car's head lamps are incredibly DIM, even with the brights on you can't see ANYTHING at night. EVERY button in the interior feels so incredibly CHEAP. The audio system sounds like absolute crap. The cup holders are in the stupidest position, if you have drinks then they get in the way of shifting. You can barely see anything out of the backup camera, the quality on it is crap. The buttons that normally work the "infotainment" system are on the BACK of the steering wheel. WTF? Not to mention the screen gets disgusting and gunky really fast. The handbrake is engaged with your foot, literally no one likes that. The air vents on the far left/right DO NOT work, and the air that blows from the vertical ones in the middle are incredibly weak. Not to mention, if you want to use a phone clip that attaches to the vents, you're screwed because they're vertical for no apparent reason. The worst thing of all potentially is that you can't turn off the god-forsaken auto engine shut off, insanely annoying... I only had the car for a week, god knows how many more annoying things I would have discovered as time went on. I now have a 2014 Chevy Cruze and it's AWESOME. WELL built and quality parts/design. From my research this line of vehicles went to shit 2016 and up.
@Decimator Omega yeah you're right and this Joe Schmo guy seems like a real freaking moron! Because you don't actually shift the gears at all! You just push the button at the top while it's already in position! Most of the time people put it in drive and then they go or they drop it down and push the button at the top... so his idiotic little argument about drinks getting in the way of shifting gears... Just makes him an all-out moron!!!
This is the most comprehensive review about the Chevy Cruze
Just boughtt this car in mettalic blue yesterday. 2018 LT Fully loaded with sun roof and all!! Absolutely love this car!! So far lol
Is it still good
My cruze is 7 years old and yes its still good. @moigamino1875

If you ever get rid of the stang you should test drive a Camaro, I’ve driven both and feel the Camaro handles a lot better
I have a 2017 LT I love it ❤️😍
Aliha Walker my moms thinking about the 2017 lt as well do you recommend it
I have it in arctic blue, how about you?
Poor people car 😂😂
@@hi-hc2ql not true I also have a Mercedes e500. Get your facts straight buddy
@@hi-hc2qlyet here you are lol….
In this car segment the Chevy Cruze has the best styling and very competitive with the other brands.
@Shamur Stewart what the fuck
the auto stop start does not engage when the engine is too cold to prevent damage to the engine with repeated cold starts

Only 11400 but a few more miles. Drives n handles n quiet. Love my sunburst orange 2017 lt
Ugh ,why is it 15k used at 75km niw
chevy cruze...best bang for the buck, in compact 2017, anyway. I'm a believer..
Got my 2018 Cruze LT loving it!
Loop Garoo i bought me a 2018 last year i also love it

Well battery charge is because if your battery is running low the computer in the car will cut off features to conserve its battery life.

Heck yeah, I'm so used to my 03 and 04. I have a rental 17" I was wondering why the car did that when I stopped. Nice car. Considering on getting one.
What’s wrong with the turn signal stalk?
oh my dog! what a beautiful car! :))))
no squeaks and rattles over those bumpy roads, a good sign, totally unlike the last impala i drove which was a rattletrap.
Loved the video man, deffinetly considering one of these and your review was by far the best and most in depth 😊
This is the best review I found on this car! You went really in depth on every aspect of this car! Great job! ⚡💯⚡

I have a 2015 Cruze LT...bought it in March of 2015. It now has 10k mi on it. It had like 17 mi when we got it. It's Autumn Bronze metallic.
Beatlesbec Nice looking into a Cruze for my first car do you recommend it?
Kenneth K Thank you I was thinking of one because my dealer has one for 14k and spark is 12k so I was willing to pay 2k extra
The chevy Cruze is nice. I have a chevy malibu #ChevyFamily
great review! thank you
The new Chevy Cruze has better features than my 2017 Subaru Crosstrek premium.
seems almost as quiet as an impala i drove. i can tell the ride quality is very firm over the bumps but at least the cruze doesn't crash and bang over them like the impala did, as the impala comes with the bad combo of too-big-wheels and too-small [low-profile] tires resulting in next to no isolation from sharp bumps.

Saving up a down payment for this car 💕💕
Put the car in L6 to turn off auto stop
I use neutral to side step the auto off
Going to pick this car up n Friday in red marooon
Great review!
Austintown OhIo!!!
Can you adjust the height of the wheel? That's all I need to know since I am short and don't want to have to stretch my arms up!
Yeah. The wheel moves up and down as well as forward and backward
I just wish it had separate orange turn signals.
Bought this car last week. It's awesome. Want to ask how many speakers are inbuilt in This?
abhimanyu sharma i dont know but I've tested them and they are high quality.
6
6 unless you have the sun and sound package
i dont get why chevy cheaped out on the led head lights. They give led daytime running lights but not head lights!
Right
Halogen projecter lights a far greater distance and reallt lights up the road. Led doesnt as much.
@@mtdewyx thank you for that piece of information I didn't realize that I just put in LED headlines I like the brightness but I guess I might look into the halogen projector lamps
Is this car push start?
This particular one was not, but push start is available
Would you consider the car reliable ?

I’m going to by a 2018 premier sedan do you think it’s good ? For a first car
Looks so anonymous, at least the last Cruze had a somewhat interesting look.
Isn’t the CVVT different from the Civics CVT? Like isn’t the transmission continuously running and isnt the cvvt actually switching gears?
Cvvt meant constantly variable valve timing in the engine.
Why did your aunt get rid of the 2009 Escape and what was the final mileage?
She didn’t get rid of it. She still has it. I have no idea what the mileage is.
Is auto stop bad ? I just got the car
saves gas right?
Killclixs its just to save on gas i have one too don't bother me at all and you can control it if you brake smoothly

Please code of injector full
Do this got remote start?
It's an available option
Mine came with it and heated front seats.
It do.
@@chocolatewheelchair 🤣🤣🤣
I had a BMW 2015 . Then I bought Chevy Cruze . Now I understood why BMW so expensive than Chevy
Gay!
What annoys me is that every white Cruz I see has black interior and mine is tan! 😡
Michelle Holt lol, omg.. I cannot stand a tan interior.
