You'll give up the other models' Watt's linkage (Z-link) rear suspenaion—yielding more body motion during quick maneuvers—and you do get a little more road noise. You need to take control to steer around a traffic situation or object, merge into traffic, exit the highway, make a turn, stop for crossing traffic or a traffic light, a stop sign or other traffic control device. Super Cruise is not a crash avoidance system and will not steer or brake to avoid a crash.

Favorite Features

The Chevrolet Cruze already had a feature set that was in line with that of a more expensive mid-size sedan, not a compact. But it the Cruze feature set just got even better for 2013, especially with respect to connectivity and infotainment. Although the Cruze boasts reasonably good outward vision compared to other cars in its segment, a rear vision camera is available as part of several option packages. The 2013 Chevrolet Cruze has one of the most comfortable interiors among compact sedans, If seating and cargo space are priorities, this should be one of your top picks, as the Cruze has them in abundance. The Cruze is responsive enough for commuters and growing families, but we wouldn't call it edgy. A Watt's-linkage (non-independent) rear suspension keeps its rear tires planted on even choppy surfaces, but that's countered by a fair amount of body roll, discouraging enthusiastic driving.

Tasteful but not at all daring, the Chevy Cruze stretches more for style inside than it does outside.

Base Cruze buyers are welcomed by a manually height- and tilt-adjustable driver's seat, while power seats on upper trims models accommodate an even wider range of drivers. The Cruze easily surpasses the Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla for usable interior space, while the seats themselves are better than those in the Hyundai Elantra. Tall drivers will find that only the Volkswagen Jetta comes close for front-seat legroom. Acceleration is actually a bit slower with manual-transmission Cruzes due to the fuel-efficiency-friendly gear ratios used for hitting that sky-high 42 mpg EPA highway rating. It is important to always remember that Super Cruise is a driver assistance technology and cannot accurately detect all situations, so you should pay attention to the road ahead while Super Cruise is engaged. Super Cruise also cannot determine whether the driver is awake, asleep, impaired or properly focused on safe driving.

Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert are also made available. Super Cruise will use the Adaptive Cruise Control† set speed, however if you have not set the Adaptive Cruise Control speed when Super Cruise is activated, it will use your current speed as the Adaptive Cruise Control set speed. See how Super Cruise hands-free driving technology compares to Ford BlueCruise, Rivian Driver+ and Tesla AutoPilot. From a distance, the Cruze probably looks a little too much like a blunted Malibu (Chevrolet's mid-size sedan), but it does wear a traditional sedan three-box layout and pleasant, inoffensive proportions. The arched roofline and smoothly sculpted side sheetmetal provide just enough visual flair—in a way that won't look dated a few years down the line. Practically speaking, we like the relatively low beltline and how it opens up the cabin for more outward visibility than is typical.

For reference, the 2013 Chevrolet Cruze originally had a starting sticker price of $19,020, with the range-topping Cruze LTZ Sedan 4D starting at $24,345.

The Cruze's trunk, considering the segment, is a huge at 15.4 cubic feet, featuring an underfloor compartment (on most models) and seats that fold forward to expand trunk space.

Available on LT and LTZ models, the package adds special front and rear fascias, extended rocker moldings, a rear spoiler, and fog lamps. And inside, chrome accent rings, opaque instrument-cluster bezels, and ice-blue backlighting give the RS a different ambiance. The Cruze has in past model years been both an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top Safety Pick, as well as a federal five-star performer; the only exception is a 'marginal' small overlap result. To complement that, Chevy has introduced even more available safety equipment. 1.4-LITER ECOTEC TURBO ENGINEThe 2013 Chevrolet Cruze sedan’s 4-cylinder turbocharged engine not only delivers ample torque for a fun drive, it’s also quiet and fuel-efficient. To disengage Super Cruise, take control of the steering wheel and then press the Super Cruise button again, press the brake, or pull the Regen on Demand†.

It's a Chevrolet small car, but between the vertically oriented center stack, flanked by vents, and the wraparound dash with chiseled details we can see Cadillac design influence trickling down into this more affordable GM sedan. For a more detailed look at the 2013 Cruze specs, features and options check out Kelley Blue Book's 2013 Chevrolet Cruze specs page. If exciting exterior styling and a powerful engine top your list of must haves, Chevrolet’s 2013 Cruze compact sedan takes a backseat to cars such as the Mazda Mazda3, Ford Focus and Honda Civic Si. Lane Change on Demand†By simply activating the turn signal on select Chevy vehicles, Lane Change on Demand will look for an opening in the desired lane and change lanes without any further input from the driver.

While it rivals some mid-sizers for legroom, it's not all that wide—and not wide enough for three adults. Also, the rather short rear doors make it a little harder to get in than it should be. But for those in front or in back, the relatively low beltline makes it more comfortable—and eliminates the need for the Dramamine. Rather than pulling random numbers out of the air or off some meaningless checklist, KBB’s editors rank a vehicle to where it belongs in its class. Before any car earns its KBB rating, it must prove itself to be better (or worse) than the other cars it’s competing against as it tries to get you to spend your money buying or leasing. For 2013, Chevy’s Cruze receives a number of electronic and safety upgrades, including the availability of the MyLink infotainment system and two new color touch-screen radios, one of which features navigation.

Once the directions are in, the vehicle will correct if you miss another turn. The 2013 Cruze again feels more like a mid-size sedan when it comes to refinement. The Cruze feels more mature and upscale compared to many of its rivals this size, with triple door seals, acoustical headliner materials, nylon baffles in the body panels, and special engine mounts.
