线程： 快速审查： 2011年雪佛兰科鲁兹生态

全球经济衰退、 GMs 破产和大规模的体育事业，是大众消费者放弃了但雪佛兰最后建立了一个伟大的小赛车。我最近踏上 2011年雪佛兰科鲁兹在节油生态修剪。售价 $18,895，科鲁兹生态功能 mpg 型超-低滚动阻力轮胎和风作弊身体之类的额外修剪。它不会给出科技普锐斯混合动力车，虽然你不能在高速公路上行驶过程中认为，估计 40 分钟，平均。

事实上，它长的驱动器，带出最好的科鲁兹。138-必和必拓 1。4 升涡轮增压 4 缸发动机是非常安静，虽然该机保持了稳定和舒适甚至在纽约城的车辙 (和冰雪覆盖) 道路。我很犹豫我测试车上装 6 速手动变速箱。当然在此基础上，雪佛兰可能已经找到了与科鲁兹了很久吧......，传输注定要感觉像搅拌粥用木勺，正确吗?

令人惊讶不是 ！离合器很容易调整和转变行动是很大程度上是积极的即使这种压倒性的感觉是厚实的塑料会议固体橡胶。六速自动是 925 美元的选项。电动转向到了一些批评为是焦躁，虽然觉得愉快和准确时要孤注一掷与新泽西收费公路上的交通。五个成人的余地和破折号的布局是合乎逻辑的与智能地放置的所有控件。

在树干上，虽然大多是未使用的车，我周末期间提供方便的 15。4 立方英尺的房间。这应该是房间的更多比足够牵引向家人和朋友，并从肯尼迪国际机场，而无需这种过分，他们就会认为他们可以留在一个多星期。虽然外观不会推设计的任何障碍，科鲁兹进来为附近的普遍赞誉，和几个朋友称这可爱，真的很好看。

It took a global recession, GMs bankruptcy, and the mass consumer abandonment of large sport-utilities, but Chevrolet has finally built a great small car. I recently stepped aboard a 2011 Chevrolet Cruze in fuel saving Eco trim. Priced at $18,895, the Cruze Eco features mpg-minded extras like ultra-low-rolling-resistance tires and wind cheating body trim. Its not going to out-tech a Prius hybrid, though you cant argue with an estimated 40 mpg average during highway driving.

In fact, its long drives that bring out the best in the Cruze. The 138-bhp 1. 4-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine is very quiet, while the ride remained steady and comfortable even on the rutted (and snow-covered) roads of New York City. I was hesitant about the 6-speed manual transmission fitted to my test car. Sure, Chevy might have gotten a lot right with the Cruze…but the transmission was bound to feel like stirring gruel with a wooden spoon, right?

Surprisingly not! The clutch is easy to modulate and the shift action is largely positive, even if the overwhelming sensation is of chunky plastic meeting solid rubber. A six-speed automatic is a $925 option. The electric steering has come in for some criticism for being twitchy, though I found it to be pleasant and accurate when dicing with traffic on the New Jersey Turnpike. There is room for five adults and the layout of the dash is logical, with all controls intelligently placed.

The trunk, while mostly unused during my weekend with the car, offers a handy 15. 4 cu. ft. of room. That should be more than enough for hauling friends and family to and from JFK airport, without having such an excess of room that theyll think they can stay more than a week. And while the exterior doesnt push any design barriers, the Cruze came in for near universal praise, with several friends calling it cute and really good looking.
