42mpg is rubbish for a diesel. BMW diesels do well over 50 with much more power
Scotty, they, like myself, expect a manual option with these cars... As for manual diesel cars, I'd love to own the new Mazda6 down the road
They always get better mileage than what the EPA estimates. And $25k is a great deal! A used 2009 Jetta TDI goes for $20k+
Slushbox?! Why the knock on a 6-speed automatic? Did they expect an 8-speed? And, only 42 mpg for a car that'll use more expensive fuel? How does this small car not get at least 50 mpg with a diesel?
Acceleration is decent, but will pull a lot harder on the highway than the 8.6 sec 0-60 will suggest.
My friend has one o these and my other has the Mazda 3 skyactiv. Very similar cars, but the only thing Mazda did better was the stereo. In the cruze, it's a nice solid chassis (BTCC) low seating position, better looking, turbo, etc. just needs manual
I do hope this catches on. It's about time people in America got over the old stigma of diesel cars from the '70s and realize that the technology has improved massively since then.
Wooh! I love it. I hope it catches on.
Hooray for diesel.
Tons of torque and horsepower comparable to a gasoline engine with better fuel mileage, u can't beat that, Chevy better make this thing! Little diesels r great, I had a diesel VW Beetle and loved it!
Slow clap for Chevy. Love that they are finally offering diesel to America!
I'd love one of these
Same power as the gasser but crap load of torque. Why would you buy the gas version?
Lots of torque
yes!!! finally.... I think small diesel cars will catch on in USA.... about time!!!!
