The Cruze is back in 2015 with redesigned front and tail ends, and this compact sedan features a tremendous amount of interior space and large 425-litre trunk. Thanks to its engines, a 1.8L naturally-aspirated four-cylinder or a 1.4L turbocharged mill, it’s a champion of fuel economy. A brand new turbodiesel came out last year, making it a serious rival for the Jetta TDI.
