Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback

[Lets Torque]

As the title suggests, I saw an unusual Chevy yesterday on the M1.

It was a '11' Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback. I'm really sad when it comes to cars, just ask some of my freinds but I didn't even know they made these.

When it came up behind at 90mph the front just looks like a normal Chevy Cruze, it was only when it came past my dad's van that we both noticed the back.

IMO I prefer the saloon. The one I saw though was grey and dirty, so maybe another colour works better. Anyway this thread is useless without pictures so..



I wondered why they don't use these in the BTCC as the majority are hatchbacks.

This thread may be useless to many people so this thread is not complete without the 'Cool Story Bro'.

In other news I saw my first X6M yesterday aswell

Although I think the Cruze actually looks a bit better.

Since I stopped reading CAR and The Autocar and only took EVO and classic car mags, I am often surprised by run-of-the-mill vehicles and wonder what the hell they are.

I'm not even sure I've seen a saloon Cruze in the flesh.

From a purely looks point of view, I would have the Cruze over the current Focus....never thought I'd ever say something like that

I don't know much about the Cruze, apart from Jason Plato racing one , as its a GM product, does it share anything with the Astra, previous or current gen?

Yes. Same platform. Cruze reached the market first so technically the Astra is based on it!

The problem with the new Focus to me is that it dosn't have the vertical back lights, and to me that's what made the Focus...a Focus.

Still no one with a 'Cool Story Bro' comment.... I'm dissapointed PH.
