2009 Chevrolet Cruze

The Chevrolet Cruze is a passenger car segment C of the U.S. manufacturer General Motors has unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in 2008. It is offered for sale in South Korea under the brand Daewoo Lacetti and other markets from the second quarter of 2009 under the Chevrolet and Holden. It replaces the Chevrolet Cobalt as the Chevrolet Optrad, already present in the U.S. and Korea for several years.
 

More than a car to drive, the Cruze is a car to live. His performance on the road makes a "good granny" obedient, but not pleasing. Its 2.0 diesel engine original VM Motories 150 horsepower but suffers from a severe lack of low end torque, its 320 Nm being available only above 2000 rev / min. One detail particularly disadvantageous that the gearbox five-speed shows a long overpass to reduce consumption. Thus, in the city, evolving on a light throttle at 20 km / h in second gear, sometimes you put the first not to stall. The platform inaugurated by the Cruze will be the basis for many other models of GM, whose future Opel Astra. Healthy and balanced, here it is served by Kumho tires which may grip is surprising, and an ESP ineffective in the fight against understeer.


Obviously, the Cruze gleaning a much higher rating if it was based on tire worthy of the name. Especially with ABS, Isofix rear-seat and six airbags, it has everything to put in trust, including cruise control, headlights and automatic windshield wipers and fog lamps. Too bad also that his ESP from another age gaps just to fight the front end.
