While Mazda has MAZDA 3, Ford has Focus, and Mitsubishi has Lancer, then Chevy introduces its Chevy Cruze. In the auto industry, the competition segment is owned by compact cars. As of today, small cars zoom past the streets, raising a rebellion on the traffic. The rebellion is lead by the all new Chevy Cruze 2012.

Last year Cruze has been announced as the all-new model and penetrated deep enough on both sales and critical success. Its fame even reached to other countries, and has clung deep down in the heart of Cebu. There are various reasons; people can actually name them, but the bottom line is that Cruze is a quality car. It just revolutionizes the compact cars, looking stunning inside and out. The Cruze just possesses the sleekness and efficiency a compact car must have which offers impressive features, handsome styling and fuel economy figures even the staunchest vintage lover would concede are pretty darn good. First thing that one will notice in detail is the solid “thunk” the first time you close the door and then shuts. The features are up to date giving you many options like hard-drive-based navigation and keyless ignition.

Going forward, the 2012 Chevy Cruze impresses everyone with its notable features: it has a Bluetooth, a USB Port for portable music devices and steering-wheel-mounted stereo control. It also has a sporty RS package, offering front fog lamps, panel moldings and a rear spoiler. It has also a standalone options which includes like power moonroof, rear parking sensors, GPS navigation and a Pioneer premium audio system. Sounds cool, eh? Not just that, it impresses with capable handling and a quiet cabin.

The Chevy Cruze is smart about on how to use all space that is within a compact car, folding rear seats for larger rooms to be welcoming on larger items. The interior has been refined such as putting various rich colors, bold dials and details like leather-appointed seats. Peace and harmony is what Cruze is all about. It is designed to keep outside noise outside with its triple-sealed, acoustic laminated glass windshield, leaving you the impression that you are on a meditative state.

Everyone wants a car that wants to make use out of every dollar they put in their gas tank, but without sacrificing its performance and its handling. To have those, one must need a pretty impressive engine, and not to disappoint everybody, Cruze absolutely does. It has a 1.4L turbo charged engine which is designed for fuel efficiency without holding performance. It delivers 138 horsepower and accelerates with authority. Armed with rack-mounted electric power steering and race-proven Z-link rear suspension on LT, a tight corner for Cruze is an icing on the cake.

Talking about its safety? Sure, Cruze is in advance. “Protection is great—prevention is better”, as was the punch line, the 2012 Cruze receives and overall 5-star safety rating from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. To simply put, the Cruze just wanted safety its principle.
