I have seen people say the Cruze looks boring but I like the look. I have had sports cars in my day, convertibles etc. but for me this little Cruze does the trick. No, it doesn't have the power, looks or appeal of my old Z-28 but at age 49 those things do not quite mean as much lol. Peace people.
Don't kid yourself, the Impreza has better reliability, capability, safety, rear seat room, and build quality.
Wells306 You forgot one.
Resale value.
The Impreza will not have as much of a problem with depreciation as the Cruze will.
The Cruze is actually pretty reliable, and for the price is really nice. Not to mention its much easier to din a Cruze in a manual, which will get you 42MPG.
+Wells306 Look at the JD Power projected reliability for the 2015 Impreza. lmao
+Alex Silva I don't know about reliability, we have the cruze in Australia and it is one of the most unreliable if not the most unreliable car to ever be sold here, the other 2 are also GM cars.
The engines in an Australian Cruze are no where near the same offerings in America. I believe the Australian models have the 1.6 liter. American models have a 1.4 liter turbo (featured in this video) or a 1.8 liter. They aren't the same car at that point.
At the beginning they said the Cruze has a ton of leg room, but towards the end they said it "just okay?"
i love the cruze
my sister has a 2014 Cruze she gets 54 miles per gallon which is pretty good if you ask me
Diesel, that's why she gets 54mpg.
This is a joke. Consumers Reports has the Impreza as class leading for Compact Cars. The Cruze is bound to have a million recalls and to break down before it hits 100k. It doesn't beat the Impreza in shit.
+Yjennings 3 i think u mad you dont gotta cruze my boy
Leo Alvarez why would I want the same car as all the white 16 years old drive
+Yjennings 3 sorry bro didnt mean to make u mad
Yjennings 3 I'm not a 16 y/o white boy and own a 2013 cruze, fully loaded, 138k miles on it and not a single issue.... hmmm.... well... take this towl.... wipe the egg off your face.....
Yjennings 3 my Aunt has a Cruze with 160k miles they’re great cars
The Impreza imprezed me. Got better fuel economy even with AWD thats imprezive.
jeah
and this.. without turbo & with larger engine 2L to 1,4
japanese cars are the best
juan tafoya not to mention subaru's awd system is amazing
I see what you did there 😂
+juan tafoya but cvt
Great review. I ilike when these 2 guys do the comparison videos!
Love driving my 2018 Cruze.
Love that you guys did a vs with the Subaru Impreza and to add it won hahaha but found the video was a little short and I personally would like to see a full review of it alone. Thanks Autoguide
I love the people that bash GM. They have made some damn good engines and still do. They aren't perfect and yes they have had recalls but the continue to get better. Keep in mind GM sells a ton more vehicles than Subaru. I know Subaru's well as I live in Colorado and yes they are good vehicles but they aren't bullet proof and I have heard of the new models giving a lot of transmissions issues since they went to CVT, well even before that they had weak transmissions.
Best in the world
The only reason people badmouth us because they really don't know anything except for what they hear on the news
I like these comparisons. The matches seem to be pretty creative recently.
Least reliable vs most reliable, damn, this review is extreme.
Diego Perez I mean I own a 2013 cruze with 138k miles on it and have yet to have any issues.... my friend owns a 2010 impreza with only 92k miles on it and while he hasn't had any mechanical issues he's had his door handle for the driver and passenger rip off the car last winter and the passage side sun vizier fall off.... :/ don't really know where your getting you claims from but a cheap mass production car is still a cheap mass production car...
both are nice but i picked the chevy over the subaru after test driving. i found it more fun to drive, the traction control proved good despite not having AWD, and even though i had a recall, i never had problems with mine. only reason i would pick the impreza over the cruze would've been for the WRX.
Terrence Benjamin how long have you had it?
They failed with the fuel economy part on this review, I daily my Cruze and with a manual, I get nearly 42mpg which leaves me happy. Yeah it is FWD but that doesn't matter to me, I daily this car, if I want something more fun I pull out my other car. I like subies but personally, I never liked the interior and feel of the car. It's always felt a little outdated. And Chevy nails it with their interior. But to each their own.
I agree, nice little cars for the money
Can't wait to see how the 2016 Chevy Cruze is going to fair amongst the compacts. Recent photos show it to be quite the looker. Hopefully it's hatchback counter part will see its way into the U.S soon.
Love my Cruze 2015 but it does ride a bit rougher than my older 2012 Cruze. I think the Cruze is a very nice car for the price. I think the Cruze also runs very well for a 1.4 engine...was very surprised with the power and torque of the Cruze.
upgrade the turbo for about $300 and front shock to cool overs for$150 and watch your self blow.pass the eco boost mustang and even.the evo`s and imprezas it's a blast
D Carden can you get that done at the dealer?
I find the comparison when it comes to the dollars and MPH to be a bit misleading. I have a 2014 Cruze Eco (6speed manual) which is the same car shown, just with a slight change to the front end. 16k miles on it so far, lifetime MPG is 36 over 16k miles, highest MPG so far over an 80 mile trip in PHX was 54 mpg. That car is rated 27 city, 42 Hwy... and it does that and more. a $31k Cruze would have to be a 2.0 Turbo Diesel, which gets even BETTER MPG that my Cruze Eco. Additionally because the 1.4 is a turbo, there's a tune available for the car to give it a big bump in performance yet no MPG penalty when you drive in a normal fashion.
The Cruze (Delta II) and the Volt (Delta II) are both on the same platform. The Cruze is tiny inside. I know someone who got rid of one because it was just too small.
The Cruze looks like something an over 50 Dad would drive. Other markets already have the refreshed Cruze. The US & Canadian markets don't get the refresh until 2016.
The 2015 Cruze and 2016 Cruze Limited would be a smart choice in some ways. These are the last 2 years of this body style and several common Cruze durability problems were fixed in 2011 and 2012 plus the transmission calibration has improved over the years. The Cruze very quiet and, especially in trims with the z-link rear suspension, handles well while staying comfortable. Unfortunately that won't change the small rear seat and while MyLink is ok, it's also the last year for the current version of that which means it's 2013 tech at best.
I haven't driven an Impreza but the touchy throttle is definitely annoying in a 2010 era Outback I drive occasionally. Also, for people who view driving as strictly as a chore that results in moving people and things, the Subaru's CVT will do just fine but for a lot of people who are into cars, they have droning sounds under acceleration and a decidedly unsporty feel. Finding either of these cars with a manual on the lot will be rare (Cruze Eco possibly an exception) but in theory at least you can get a Cruze with a manual in 3 trims, the highest of which (1LT) can be optioned up nicely. The Subaru only offers manuals only on the most basic trim levels.
n that Subi has HIDs too..give more premium look
I have a the cruze ltz rs its pretty darn fun car in the corners. An the freeway 90 mph feels like 60 mph its fun stable car . The one thing the subi has over the Cruze is awd
yea he has a wisp but he is a good reviewer so who cares
Gr8t video by the way.
I can’t wait to get myself a brand new latest model 2015 Chevy Cruze 😀
cruze needs a complete redesign top to bottom, i swear this ones been out since 2008 or 2009 in some markets
Erkal It will be out next year. There are some spy shots of it unmasked and it actually doesn't look that bad. wot.motortrend.com/1404_2016_chevrolet_cruze_sports_different_grille_and_lights.html/2016-chevrolet-cruze-prototype-black-rear-three-quarter/
Kevin Alan It looks more like a Kia Forte.
no need for spy shots, its already out in china, idk if we will get the same exact design but most likely we will.
Erkal when they redesign it it will still be a POS domestic with low resale value
Those 2 cars are quite close and they both have their strenghts. But when you compare the actual price per month/week with financing, you realise that the Cruze will cost you far less.
These are actually built on the exact same platform. They have collaborated many times before, for example the Navajo is the same thing as a Chevy Accord and the Trooper and Passport were the same even though one is a Chevy and one is a Subaru. Car companies do this all the time. They just change the name of the cars. The only difference is that Subaru is not sold in America any more, only in Europe.
godfatherNYC yes and the domestics started that trend in the 70's, domestic companies were the first copycats
please compaire the new Nissan maxima against the altima
I bet all the Cruze crap talkers cant even afford one anyways.
lucasmellencamp why would someone with half a brain want to spend their hard earned dollars on a POS that depreciates faster than the speed of light and will be a shop queen lol
hey, I got to stick up for what I bought, I love my cruze. its fully loaded, I don't know why they are comparing it to a hatchback car, makes no damn sense. they should of used the new Malibu or impala. instead of this hatchback, should have been a ford focus
lucasmellencamp a friend of mine bought a cruze last fall and he's been to the shop on several occasions to fix electrical problems, his trunk lid was opening by itself lol
wow, that sucks, I just bought mine 2 months ago, so far so good. I love the 9 speakers in this car.
lucasmellencamp cross your fingers it doesn't turn out to be a lemon like my friends car, good luck
surprised there wasn't a recall during this video for the cruze :P
Cruze will always scream "Recall prone rental car!" to me. While the Impreza is the better of the two, it looks bland to me. Mazda 3 hatch all the way!
CM I agree, the Impreza is pretty bland looking. Except for the latest WRX, Subaru to me has never done a good job with aesthetics, but they're more about practicality and performance. The BRZ is also made by Toyota and Scion, so there's a good chance Subaru doesn't take the credit for the body. The Mazda 3 hatch was a close call for me but I didn't get it because:
- It's a little more expensive
- The infotainment system looks really out of place, like as though it were tacked in at last minute
- It doesn't have AWD
- Smaller trunk space and rear-seating
- I don't care much for the big "smile" look in the front.
- Mazda's rust-proofing isn't great. Not bad, but not good either. I live in an area that heavily salts the roads during winter.
Otherwise, the Mazda 3 is overall better looking, it apparently has a better sound system, and it's very good on gas.
CM the impreza will easily outlast both of them and will be far more reliable not to mention the best AWD in the business, also a much better resale value
guy proulx Subaru's AWD is good but I don't need it where I live and I just can't get past its bland looks, the last generation was better looking imo. Subaru's exterior and interior designs seem a generation behind everyone else plus Mazda's reliability is also highly ranked like Subaru.
CM i buy a vehicle for reliability and it's resale value, looks for me are not as important, like the interior for me is not the most important either, as long as i am seated comfortably, have a decent radio, a/c and electric windows, mirrors, tilt steering wheel, i am happy, mazda reliability as high as subaru? not so sure, which brand do you think will have a better resale? btw i see what your saying about the AWD, if you live down south, where i live the AWD is awsome and almost a necessity if you want to feel safe and planted on our iced up or snow covered highways
i had a 2007 mazda 3 that gave a lot of engine problems 4th year. i traded it for the recalled riddled cruze. yes the mazda was better at driving because i had the 2.3 liter and sport suspension but at least with the cruze i haven't been back to the dealer except for routine maintnenance and the first year recalls. 4 years later i have no problems and the car still drives well. gonna keep it 3 more before i trade up. so based on my experience with it, i say its no where near a POS unlike my unfortunate experience with the Mazda. This all just proves that perceived reliability is a joke. A lemon can be had with any car.
Both models now ditched in the UK as deemed not good enough to sell here! Take from that what you will....
At 4:00 Impreza is spelled "Imprezza."
I just got rid of a Chevy Cruze. Thing nearly killed me twice.
I find this review a little bias
@0:22 you say that Crevrolet Cruze has "a ton of rear legroom", then you say the exact opposite in the main review. Do you even check what you're saying in these reviews?
I am surprised a loaded cruze can break the 30k mark....I mean I can buy a nice camry with that price or accord. The Impreza pricing sounds much more reasonable.
If this were 2013 you would be comparing the Impreza to Suzuki Kizashi AWD.
CHEVROLET CRUZE ESPECTACULAR, SALUDOS DESDE RANCAGUA CHILE.
My Buick Verano will blast off and get you too 120 before you realize that your going that fast yet my sisters Chevy Cruze falls on its face on the highway. I didnt realize my sisters turbo engine makes 138 HP and my Buick is at 250 HP but she gets great gas mileage and my Buick not so much but its way more fun and its very much a luxury car and despite more HP its way quieter then the Cruze and the cruze is nice but not really built for luxury. They are similar but not very! They are about the same size but I didn't realize they don't share nearly as much as I had thought but if your thing is gas milage you should go with the Cruze, its a well built car.
What happen to this guy tongue?
ol' lispy Larry over there.....can't take it
hahaha
247wallst.com/autos/2015/05/15/7-cars-buyers-cannot-wait-to-trade-in/
Some 7.2% of Chevy Cruze buyers dump the car after just a year of ownership. That is 2.7 times the average rate.
Wtf 31k for a top cruze that's a mercedes cla
Not all cars are perfect!
Locally it's a $23k Impreza vs. $17k Cruze. Even though the Impreza has much more equipment and is my choice, a lot more will be able to afford the Cruze, heck Malibus are only $20k.
Kamaka Chang the reason they are so cheap is because they are built cheap lol
guy proulx I agree the Cruze is cheaper on all fronts. Subaru can't build them fast enough so it's hard to find base Subarus. So for the same money do you buy a new Cruze or a used Impreza?
Kamaka Chang i'd buy a used impreza, just have it inspected first, i personally stay away from domestics
awd in that impreza decimates the cruze easily
put a strut bar in the cruze and itll turn on a dime
Cruze becomes double the base price with the options? Lol hell no
I traded my 2011 Chevy Cruze LTZ for a 2015 Impreza Sport. The Impreza is 10X better.
hey guys !!will u plz replace that guy with glasses ,, can understand what he say and he act a lot .
I don't think the Cruze is a match with the Impreza , put it against a corolla or a Sentra .
Djdrift Stig the cruze should only be compared with other POS domestics
Subaru 4 Life!!!!!!!!
Holy crap!!!! Is this a fucking joke??? You're comparing a shit-box to a Subaru??? It should be compared to a Thailand tuk-tuk and it would STILL lose!!! A POS that was NEVER redesigned since 2008, weighs 300lbs more than the Civic, Corolla, Mazda 3, while being propelled by a weak 138hp engine!!!! Bloody hell!!!
I literally can not watch these anymore. I can't stand the guy with the glasses.
CRUZE.
People who favours Impreza has never driven one or has seen one in person ...sure AWD is nice but man their cartoonish design and cheap 80s Toyota looking dash is nothing special to look at . Also have you driven one? It's border line dangerous slow . :(
liquidsilver1941 i'll take proven reliability, better resale over looks and bells & whistles any day, remember the tortoise and the hare, slow and steady is way better than spending time at the shop or waiting for a tow truck
Proven reliability? Have you seen the head gasket issues on the 2.5L Subaru motors? Do a search and you'll see . Not all Japanese cars are reliable and I've owned a Subaru in the past . Let hope this 2.0 motor is better .
liquidsilver1941 my parents have had 4 subaru's since '83, first 3 all had over 250k, they just bought a 2014 last fall, the only part they replaced was a wheel bearing on their 3rd subaru (an 02 forester). all car brands have some issues, some way more than others, in my opinion subaru's reputation for overall reliability far exceeds GM, not to mention safety (crash tests)
i agree. the interior of the impreza is well lacking. the same can be said for the bigger legacy.
liquidsilver1941 I disagree. I owned both, and the Impreza is better in every category.
IMPREZAAAAÀÁÂÄÆÃÅĀ
All the time with 'what a small back seat the Chrysler has', so what are you smuggling Mexicans?!
toyota all the way!! Altis 2.0V much better to two these two cars.
first uh duh
I dont understand how anybody can buy a cruse. I mean it looks so boring, how basic.
madridtillidie It's cheap and relatively roomy? Some people buy cars strictly on the basis of affordability
MihaiRUdeRO yeah but it falls into pieces 2 years after, so in the long run it might not be cheaper
Francois Hamel lol you're probably right. I'd never buy one, but I see plenty of them on the streets so I guess some people really like them?
Because their comfy,quiet,american and have a more interesting interior than the drab subaru
britton coil I just dont understand how someone can spend hard earned money on this. Buy a civic or a mazda 3, something not this boring thing on wheels.
Subaru to small
The cruze has to be one of the most unreliable and poorly designed cars in history.
coming from a 2014 cruze..this is true
Chevrolet has been kicked out of Europe.Lack of quality.Subaru its on its way.
I'd rather own a new Kia Forte before I'd ever go buy another unreliable piece of GM junk again.
A chevy losing. Wow there's a SHOCKER!
