The Chevrolet Cruze is a compact car that has been made by the Chevrolet division of General Motors since 2008. The nameplate has been used previously in Japan, for a version of a subcompact hatchback car produced under a joint venture with Suzuki from 2001 to 2007, and was based on the Suzuki Ignis.
Since 2009, the Cruze nameplate has designated a globally developed, designed, and manufactured four-door compact sedan-complemented by a five-door hatchback body variant (in 2010 it also replaced the Chevrolet Cobalt)[1] from 2011, and a station wagon in 2012. The Cruze was actually released earlier in 2008 to the South Korean market under the name Daewoo Lacetti Premiere until the phasing out of the Daewoo brand in favor of Chevrolet in 2011. In Australia, the model has been on sale since 2009 as the Holden Cruze. This new generation Cruze does not serve as a replacement for the Suzuki-derived Japanese market predecessor. Instead, it replaces three other compact models: the Chevrolet Optra sold internationally under various names (such as the Suzuki Forenza in North America, Chevrolet Optra in Latin America, Chevrolet/Daewoo Lacetti in Europe and Asia), the Chevrolet Cobalt, sold exclusively in North America, and the Opel-sourced, Australia-market Holden Cruze (later returning in 2012 briefly as an Opel until the next year, and again in 2015 as a Holden).
Production of the Cruze in the United States and Mexico ended in 2019, while the car is still produced and sold in other markets worldwide.
The second-generation Cruze began sales in North America in early 2016,[125] delayed a year by engineering changes.[126] The Cruze has a new external design with a new split grille front and a fastback-like sloping roofline from the Chinese version of the fastback. This second generation Cruze has a slightly longer length and wheelbase than the one designed for the Chinese market, with different styling cues. It is also powered by the 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 153 hp (114 kW) and 177 lb⋅ft (240 N⋅m) torque.
The 2016 Cruze comes equipped with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Capability features. However, only one of their phone brands at any one time can be used.[127][128]
In January 2016, Chevrolet unveiled the five-door hatchback version of the North American Cruze at the North American International Auto Show. It went on sale in late 2016 as a 2017 model.[129][130]
Trim levels continue to be L, LS, LT (now combined into one trim level, as opposed to the previous 1LT and 2LT designations), and Premier (replacing the previous LTZ trim level as the top-of-the-line Cruze trim level). Discontinued are the Eco and Diesel trim levels (at least for the time being).
All trim levels include a seven-inch MyLink touch-screen infotainment system with A/M-F/M radio, USB integration, a 3.5-millimeter auxiliary audio input jack, optional SiriusXM satellite radio, voice control, and CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities, keyless entry, power windows, power door locks, OnStar with 4G/LTE/Wi-Fi Hotspot connectivity for multiple devices and RemoteLink via an app on the consumer's smartphone, air conditioning, and a 1.4-liter EcoTec inline-four engine.

The 2x on the hood release means you need to pull the latch twice to open the hood. You only pulled it once and that’s why you couldn’t open it.
@@DynamiteBoy84 Why?
@@toyoscio so you don't have to fish around for the release on the bottom of the hood with the hood cracked.
Can you imagine thus guy at a dealership trying to buy a car? The salesman would be like...damn dude how picky can you be?
If I'm spending new car money I get to be as picky as I well damn please.
Ya damn right imma be picky if I'm spending thousands
I bought a new 2019 LS in late 2018. The car is fantastic. There is not one thing to bitch about. It has plenty of power for a 4 cylinder, rides great, and handles well. Also, there’s not one thing wrong with the design or look of the car.
How is it after 3 years
@@GoldRaven-oe4by Perfect. Keep in mind I usually drive 100 miles or less a week, and never hard or fast. I baby this car because I worked hard for it and value it tremendously.
Thank you! I needed to hear this
@@GoldRaven-oe4by Almost 5 years, no issues.
You like to complain. I think the car is fine.
He literally compared this car to an aston martin, he couldn't open the hood nor figure out why you cant open it when the door is closed. Its a safety feature bc if you pull that twice going down the road itll fly open and possibly cause your death and others, but you make a good point about a engine bay fire and the driver door not opening but the hood release handle isnt made of metal its plastic and with little strength it can be pulled hard enough to open the hood in an emergency. IMO i think your jealous of how good it actually does look compared to the older models. They improved its look to compete for sales against other domestic and foriegn cars not to compete with its older model. Designers take pride in every car created.
In the event of an engine fire, you don't want to pop the hood in any event. It's dangerous to do so.
Is their anything this guy likes..
Was it me or is he a whiner.
Just a negative dude walking around looking for things to criticize
I like this one. Why I Love the 2019 Toyota C-HR Crossover! th-cam.com/video/nmz2F1_I_B4/w-d-xo.html
Peter von Panda OF COURSE YOU DO. ITS YOUR OWN PEOPLES CAR! 🤬
Ikr like complains about everything
Totally disagree with this guy...
I do too. I own a 2019 Cruze LS and I love basically everything about it, especially the looks.
The hood latch is done in a way so you cant open it while driving and risk it coming up into the windshield at speed which can happen.
Lol he's really trying to make sure people don't buy a Cruze with these fake issues like the non-sporty shape compared to 1st gen when a larger general appeal is clearly what they were going for, the grill at the beginning and fhe interior section when he says the cords being drooped over the cupholders like lorddy 🤷🏾😂 Sorry TOO LATE! 😏 Already had it for 2 years and paid mine off and I still love it 🥰😆
When someone compares a 17000 dollar car to 200,000 dollars car
Example this video
The latch to open the hood is a safety feature it prevents you from opening the hood while driving.
Hey Peter....off topic but quick question.With all the reviews you do, do you find people stealing them and uploading to their channel with their own Amazon link? Every morning I get a whole new batch that TH-cam finds when I hit the copyright search button. I have not near the amount you have so I can imagine you get loads every day.
All the time. I file complaints every week.
That's a great idea! I'm looking into it! Thanks!
This is a really bad take for a budget vehicle. This guy is comparing to Aston Martins and Maserati's. I've had a 2017 Chevy Cruze 150k+ miles. 40+mpg. zero issues
This is a 2019
Why buy a 2nd one if you didn't like the1st one?
I rented this one to check it out.
Bought 2017 LT last week, car ride amazing and plenty of power from small 4 cylinder which is little faster than 1.5T 2017 malibu
I own a 2018 Cruze Diesel, automatic, fully loaded, 57k miles. Steering feels darty, but is easy to adapt to. Car always tracks straight & steady down the road, but it does feel sensitive to inputs when you just touch the steering wheel. The car leans a bit too much in turns. I think there's excessive road noise on rough pavement, & the ride is a bit stiff. On smooth roads, the ride is super quiet & steady - feels solid. I find the brake pedal too close to the accelerator. I wear size 11 shoes various widths, and the 'big toe' rubs the brake pedal while I have my foot on the accelerator - unless I place my foot almost vertical on the accelerator. The Bose stereo sounds pretty good, but I expected more from Bose. I like the styling & space inside. Leather interior, so leather on dash also looks nice. But the biggest plus is the FUEL ECONOMY, which is why I bought the diesel. The engine is refined and 'cruzes' quietly at 80 at about 2100 rpm with a satisfying low hum from the diesel. I get about 60 mpg at 65 mph. At 75, I average about 52 mpg. Ice cold a/c, and at 5'10" I think the driving position is nice & comfy. Overall a good car, especially for the money and economy.
As long as it goes down the road without breaking down, who cares about what it looks like? It's a daily driver, not a race car
This is the cheapest most fuel efficient vehicle pretty much ever made. You can buy a new one for 12 to 15k brand new and they can get upwards of 40 mpg. And you're worried about styling and the hood latch lol.
Exactly this is probably the best brand of car ever made for a college student or anyone trying to save money
@@Coolgiy67 Yeah they're really pretty good little cars. If someone wants a bigger or nicer one with more features and styling then they can get a Malibu or Impala. Or a Buick or something lol.
Rad Raad I’m college student and I’m getting that car 💯 idc what he’s talking about.
zataisha sims yup I have the 2016 one and I’m in college it’s great
No kidding. I've done 50 mpg on the highway in my 2019.
Designed by engineers. Built by cost accountants.
You said 2018 in your intro Mr. Wong. Do you know what I hate about my 2019 Cruze? Nothing. It’s a perfect f-n car.
Everything I love and hate about your review
Love: nothing hate:everything
There is nothing wrong with 2019 cruze. You just like to complain.
Then get a higher trim Cruze it’s literally almost a base model Cruze that u expected it to be perfect🤦🏽♂️that’s why they have the rs and primer trim🤦🏽♂️
The front end is way too low. I'm constantly hitting my brakes to avoid contact with the street going over dips. I've hit a few times, I don't know how much damage I've done because it's impossible to look under it's so low. It sucks!
You have to pull the hood release twice in order to open the hood. They put that in there so people don't have to search underneath the hood.
Nitpicking!
Actually, I own the car the 2016 model and it has the trunk opener on the key press two times, the cloth on the car actually makes you feel like home the hood is 2 times pull, the display is very very easy to read and use.
I like the cloth too... Is that bad?
You pull the hood latch twice. Once the pop the hood, the second to unlock it that's why it's says 2X
Dude I own a 2017 Cruze and I love it. No, it's not perfect but it's a budget vehicle with many options and features that only higher end vehicle would offer. Beside, it get close to 40MPG so yeah, I'm That back seat reminder features and many more options can be turns off. LOL Even a Mercedes will not please this man.
Damn not having a trunk button on the remote is a deal breaker for me
Is it sarcasm or meant seriously (your comment)
Pull the hood release once to get the hood loosen up (opens enough to get your hand in it) and then pull it again to actually open the entire hood.
The body line where made to compete against Hyundai Elantra on the U.S.market. same with the Chevy Malibu again the solantra, If you compare them they look almost identical to
Why you bashing all the cars you have man lol like don’t get me wrong I hated my 13 Cruze but I am also 6’3’’ and the reason why they did this is to become more dynamic
This looks like Bloomington MN?!? I think this is down by where my old office was lol
It is!
We bought this car for our daughter because it was so affordable and fuel efficient, but honestly I cannot hate that fabric more. That said, our daughter LOVES her car, so I've secretly kept my two cents to my self. :>)
Have you had any problems I bought mine in June of 2021 and have had problems with the radio turbo check engine light hydroplaning around to use it in the snow
I think this guy used to work for Chevy company and got fired
It’s a LS or LT ?
My 2017 cruze has been great up til present 2024...
Perhaps he was bitten by a Cruze when he was younger.
ok but the back seat reminder has never came up on my moms 19'-
2016-2017 look better the new designed 2019 looks like an elantra lmao
Agreed, the older Cruze looked great. This looks awful inside and out. I don't get how people spend the money for these.
Didn’t seem like an improvement to the design at all. They could’ve revised the original and really made a stand out smal car
He literally said receiving two keys was a bad thing, enough said.
I was just looking to buy one of these but when you bought up the grill, I just looked at and man... the bugs you hit are gonna get all back in there and just be a pain in the ass to clean.
I changed my mind...
Can you imagine if this dude is married what kind of hell his wife goes through?
you just walk up to the trunk when its unlocked and click it-
Why some times it sounds like you are in the restroom?
I film while taking a #2
The aerodynamics on the car are great. Even the 2013 LT had great downforce
Let’s see ur car design on the very next video
Most of the things he said are fair, what did you expect, but at least I didn't expect him to compare it to an Aston Martin
Just proves how peoples opinions vary
Your review is absolutely the best. I enjoyed your rant about the good and bad of little details of every angle. I own an 18 Hatchback LT auto. I have now 37k miles. Bought it new. Only issue I had was a bad injector at 17k miles.
The new cruzes are Direct Injected
On the push to start cruze it has a trunk button i have a 2019 cruze lt it has it
Is like the 1998 chevy cavalier that looked better than the 2003 cavalier. That's the GM way, and both overheat
I have this car,and I agree,but mines looks sportier when I dropped it.
Pretty much all of this video you’re talking about cosmetic stuff that no one cares about. People aren’t watching this video to see why you don’t like the looks of the car.
why'd you come to the video then knowing what he titled the video as, do you not read lol.
2017-18 looks better...i dont like the huge grille on this 2019
You know the a car is good, when you have to compare it to an Aston Martin
The cute hatch is much nicer
16:41 try holding the wheel with more than two fingers
You literally have a almost base model complaining about the materials... 🤦🏻♂️ ya get what ya paid for also The trunk button thing was due to the complaint of no button on the inside on the 1st gens and owners would’ve rather had a button in the inside than on the fob and also STOP COMPARING AN ECONOMY CAR TO A ASTON MARTIN, MASERATI, and/or AUDI
I'm no GM fan but the first gen Cruze was more interesting to look at, this just looks Korean.
Blane Blue The 2003 Cruze same as Suzuki Wagon R from Japan
I dont like this guy
Very nice looking car 👍
RS package gives you a better cooler design.
The 2019 looks exactly like my 2018 🤦🏻♂️ but somehow mine looks kinda better
I don't like this guy's exterior OR interior
Yes 2018 is worse buy 2015 is best
I agree
Last model year they just gave up on the Cruze.
It’s a 2019
Just look up the red line edition or the Premier RS I'm sure you will still find things to complain about but it basically is the answer to all your little complaints. I mean they even make wireless charging available for the car so you're complained about where you can put your phone and everything is even addressed so.... Base model basic options you get what you pay for. Not going to say anything about your little driving review I feel as though you're just trying to bait people into that one huh LOL but basically there's actually nothing wrong with the way the cruise drives or handles or tracks it's just this guy.
Woa woa... What's this?!?!?
Please tell me you still have the Fiat.
Where's the Cinquecento???
Love the Maserati, but the 500?
Where is it?
when i saw the hood latch stuff ..... your off the deep end . get help
I did not like my 2017 Cruze, I like my 2022 civic wayyyy more
2015 rides like a lumber wagon
Also that's not a 2019 it's a 2018 your year is off dude
The grill is awful
Really? I honestly like it even though it's a bit extreme size-wise, but I never was sure what other people thought of it.
I couldn't get past the design of the interior and those rear wheel wells you mentioned. I wanted to like it and stick with GM but decided to abandon GM altogether. I bought the 2019 Ka Forte EX. Way better design and styling inside and out.
That’s a 19..
Good catch
I agree 100% on all points
Rapid depreciation
The answer is right in front of you: its ugly.
You don't like it because is not foreing period
All the things you like where the only things that matter for the price lol
Ha, that is kind of true, Mark!
6:38 The headliner looks really cheap !!
Useless review!
Lmao you can get different options on these cruxes that match your needs, so don’t get if it’s not right for you. Everything he mentioned Chevy offers on other trims and packages. Also for his lack of knowledge with the hood and other things lol. I’m gonna stop here
Very thoughtful, professionally done review. Another marvelous design by American automotive industry. LOL. 😎👌
This Dude is negative AF!
Pastel de flango
why are spilling shit on cruze?
