2010 Chevrolet Cruze!

[electone]

Just wanna share my Cruze's FC, for what it's worth. It's a 1.8 LS Automatic with odometer at 3,900 km.

This is purely CITY driving. Sometimes aggresive driving, sometimes relaxed.

With Gold Techron 95 Octane, average of one full tank: 12.5 L/100km (8 km/L).

With Silver Techron 93 Octane, average of half tank: 14.3 L/100km (7 km/L).

Where I am at, the difference between 93 and 95 octane is only 10 centavos per liter. So I tried the Gold but after consuming the full tank, I went back to Silver because I'm not sure if our 95 octane is REALLY unleaded. I would love to go back to Gold though because for just 10 cents difference per liter, I get better fuel economy.

Your comments please.

Update on my FC using Silver Techron 93 Octane:

As per my post above, the average of a half tank was 14.3 L/100km (7 km/L).

I have used up 3/4 tank already and my average FC has improved to 13.5 L/100km (7.4 km/L).

Again, this is PURELY city driving.

Meh, pangit.

Its not that bad, the styling is just not that cohesive.
sharp front, soft looking back.

52km/11.4 litters= 4.5L / km

I don't think you're method is accurate because of the very short distance.

Best way is to fill your tank to the brim (although not advisable). Then drive around. The farther the distance covered, the better. Best to drive until near empty tank. Take note of distance travelled. Then fill tank to brim again and note volume of fuel used. Divide the distance by the volume.

tama pala ata yung sabi ng forumers sa service ng CHEVROLET PASIG nagpunta kasi ako dahil ask ko yung sa aircon. tapos sinabi ko yung problem ko. like nung tinanong ko sa inyo. akalain pag tawanan pa kami ng wife ko ngingisi ngisi sila halos lahat sila naka tingin sa amin at pinag uusapan kitang kita naman pati nga yung guard don naka tingin sa amin at ngingisi ngisi tsktsktskat nag turuan pa tapos sabi nung wife ko kasi compare niya sa innova namin before. sabi ba naman nung isang tech don. "JAPANESE CAR PO KASI YUN AT AMERICAN CAR ANG CHEVROLET" at yung isa "MALAMIG NAMAN SIR" (PANO NAKA NUMBER 4 YUNG FAN AT NAKA TODO ANG TEMP" LOLZ!!!!! sabi ko "NATURAL MALAMIG NUMBER 4 YUNG NILAGAY MO AT NAKA TODO YUNG TEMP TSKTSK ANO YAN BALEWALA ANG 1 TO 3 NA FAN KUNG DYAN KO LAGI ILALAGAY PARA LANG LUMAMIG" mano man lang sabihin nila na "SIGE SIR! CHECK NATEN YUNG AIRCON NIYO COMPARE NATIN SA IBANG CRUZE" buti nalang nakita ko yung S/A ko. sa kanya ko nalang sinabi yung problema ko. sabi sa amin sana daw nag text muna ako sa kanya bago kami pumunta don. para hindi daw nag ka ganon. so ibig sabihin GANON BA TALAGA KAYA ANG SERVICE NILA DON? eto lang masasabi ko sa SERVICE ng CHEVROLET PASIG BRANCH "SANA HINDI NA KO SA BRANCH NYO BUMILI NG CAR" AT "NAPAKA GANDA NG SERVICE NYO DON WALA AKO MASABI" NAPAKA GANDA DIN NG APPROACH NG MGA TECH DON! TSKTSKTSKTSK

Tama kaya sila sa sinabi nila na Chevy Cruze ay american made?

Medyo mga maaangas nga sila, to think na kasama mo pa asawa mo...

Sat and " played " with the cruze ( TOTL ) that's displayed in Trinoma ...

Interior is intact, spectacular and lovely. The arrangement is simply amazing ! The gauges is somewhat camaro-ish, resembles the past american muscles. Trunk space is large enough, pretty good for a family. Leather in the interior is sewn perfectly, from the seats ... the sidings up to the steering wheel. Perfect, i must say. Features are as well nice, though I haven't tried all of them ... from the looks of it, the owner would be enjoying playing with it. Exterior, i cannot say anything. Very nice. From the 17 inch stock rims to the perfectly curved body angles ... amusing.

To make my story short ... the chevy cruze basing from it's features and it's styling IS really BANG FOR THE BUCK, may it be the lowest or the highest trim. The only thing that Chevrolet needs to do I guess is to regain the trust that it lost several years ago. Because if they regained it already, then no wonder if I can see more cruzes than FD's in the next years.

Is the cruze the competitor of the honda civic that we're longing to have ? Yes, it is.

The Cruze is getting resurrected as a HATCHBACK!

Check these photos out from Autocar UK.




I absolutely think the Cruze should've been a hatchback to begin with. The sedan looks okay to these peepers, but the hatch is a whole different animal. No dowdy, heavy-looking rear end here, just a pert posterior with almost 400L of boot space --- although they should probably rethink the Altezza/IS200-like rear lamp treatment.

Update on my FC using Silver Techron 93 Octane:

As per my post above, the average of a half tank was 14.3 L/100km (7 km/L).

I have used up 3/4 tank already and my average FC has improved to 13.5 L/100km (7.4 km/L).

Again, this is PURELY city driving.

This is an update to the update.

I finally consumed my tank of Silver Techron with a final ending average FC of 13.2 L/100 km (7.6 km/L) up from an initial average FC of 14.3 L/100km (7 km/L), PURELY CITY driving.

Compare this with my average FC of 12.5 L/100 km (8 km/L) with Gold Techron.

Not much difference.

nag-improve naman pala We went to Our Lady of Manaoag yesterday and registered a 10.2 average which is roughly 9.8 L/Km. Hindi ko namalayan na nasa 140 na pala ang takbo ko sa SCtex until my attention was called by my passenger so back kaagad sa 100-120.

I still uses Caltex Gold.
