2011 Chevrolet Cruze

by ggs1372 on 11-28-2017
its really gud ride
A 153-hp turbo inline-four with a six-speed manual is standard with a six-speed automatic optional. A turbo-diesel is available with a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic; we saw 52 mpg in our testing. A 7.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is standard, as well as 4G LTE. The Cruze is great for road trips, with comfy front seats, a quiet interior, and a huge trunk.

simple awsome

2011 Chevrolet Cruze

Fun and Enjoyable Ride
Honestly, I have been driving my Cruze for an extended amount of time now, and I enjoy the fact that it is a stick shift, and it has the ability to save on fuel economy pretty easily. Although this is true, you can also have a grand amount of fun driving it - mainly because it is a stick shift. My Cruze generally hold around 800KM of gas, and it can last over 2 weeks if you drive ethically and not rambunctious. Overall, the Chevrolet Cruze is a very reliable and entertaining vehicle. If you are looking for a nice work vehicle, I suggest this car to you.

It is amazing drive
I think that Chevrolet cruze is the best car for students because it doesn't spend too much gas its price is affordable it is strong enough and Chevrolet has combined the strength and durability and style in one car its pieces are not expensive. And at the end it is American car

I love my cruze
I purchased my car in December 2010. The turbo engine is good if you are out passing a vehicle. Have only had it is for recalls, it was a new car so recalls are to be expected. The only thing that I am disappointed in, is that I have stone chips in paint behind the back tire on the drives side.

2011 Chevrolet Cruze

Trim: LS
by Wpgman on 08-26-2013
Excellent Initial Quality, But...
I bought the car new in 2011 and it has just over 40,000 km now. It's been recalled by GM three times so far, and a few other problems cause me to wonder about the car's long-term durability.

Persistent high-pitched squeeking in driveline, even when coasting with engine off/trans in neutral - not brakes, not stones in tires or wheels, not wheel bearings or CV joints - dealer could not replicate problem on three separate visits - ongoing concern.

Because the wheels sit so far outboard of the chassis, the fenders barely cover the tires, so my car has a high degree of paint chips on the dog legs aft of the rear doors. Sand and grit on winter streets were the culprits.

Three rear window defroster grid lines failed. Dealer tried repairing twice, but ended up replacing entire rear window (n/c - warranty).

HVAC controls became intermittent then stuck on defrost - actuator lever inside dash panel was detached - (dealer repaired n/c).

Trunk release button (exterior) failed. (dealer replaced n/c).

Other small problems but space does not permit.

Mine is a 1.8 L with the 6-speed manual trans. Best highway fuel economy was 5.4 l/100 km with a 70kmh tailwind. The 59-litre fuel tank gives you 900+ km of highway range. City range is about 600 km +-. Air conditioning kills fuel economy.

The car has only adequate acceleration, but very impressive handling especially over rough roads (better than my 2004 Mazda GT).

Stay away from models with the 1.4 litre turbo engine, unless you like spending extra $ for more frequent oil changes and, ultimately, very expensive turbo repairs down the road.

Be advised that the 1.8 litre engine has a rubber band for a timing belt, so it must be changed no later than recommended in the owner's manual.

Overall, I could recommend a 2011 Cruze LS if you are not planning on keeping it longer than its warranty.

2011 Chevrolet Cruze

Too many problems - many replacements
I have had nothing but problems with this car, unfortunately. I had to get a new bearing in the A/C fan with under 40,000km and a new water pump as well. There was a recall because of the oil dripping underneath which had potential to cause a fire, so the dealership cut a huge hole underneath exposing many parts to the road. Right now it shakes when the car is turned on and during the acceleration and deceleration, it is making a loud humming noise that has to get looked at. The A/C doesn't get very cold either. One other person I know has problems with their 2012 model as well. I'm currently over the 60,000km warranty and concerned about future problems.

Compact around town
This car is great to get around town with. On the highway it is good, but a little sluggish, but the ride is good, both in town and on the highway. I am 6 feet 2 so it is a bit difficult to get in and put of...there is not enough space between the steering wheel and my kness when I get in and out.

Great car for the value, seriously nice ride for the price
Handles well, great turning radius, comfortable econo car for a tall person, and it looks good. Fuel economy is as good as I expected since they always advertise better than reality. Quite satisfied with my new ride. I am extremely pleased with my new Chevy Cruze.

My Chevy Cruze
I like my Cruz for its gas mileage and usability. It is not flashiest car nor does it have the most leg room you will ever find but for a good reliable commute car it rates well. I can fit both my young boys in the back comfortably but I can tell you know that you are not fitting four adults in there and not complaining about it. All and all its a good small vehicle.

Love It
We have had the Cruze for 18 months and absolutely love the car. Having owned many cars and trucks this is certainly among my all time favourite. The fuel economy is amazing and it is a sleek and sporty car. We haven't had any warranty issues and service is a breeze. I feel like a shill for GM but trust me my Silverado Pick-up is a dog so that isn't the case.

Lots of room inside the car but it is a little tricky getting in and out, I'm 6'1" 250 pounds so by no meand am I tiny.

Would highly recommend this car

great midsize car
the car is great except I find iit a bit small - I am 6'2" / 250lbs and it is a bit cramped, especially getting in and out. Fuel economy is average, the car gets ten kilometers per 100 litres, so is is not bad. The traction control works well. I gives you good control on icy roads. This is also true of the antilock brakes, you have control over the car at all times/

Love this car
Great value for your money. I have had no problems with it at all, excellent on fuel, and looks a lot more high end than it really is, especially on the inside. For a less expensive model, Chevy did an amazing job with the design in terms of look, it does not look compact at all and in silver it looks quite sporty. There is a ton of trunk space, and the interior makes very good use of the space available. It came with XM Radio too which is awesome.
