Not Cruze specific, but we thought we'd share our opinion on this: For those that always wished the Cruze would come with a 2.0L turbo should take a hard look at the new Malibu with the 2.0 turbo (and 8sp automatic) as an alternative. Yes, it's larger than a Cruze, but given Chevrolet is consolidating design language across all models, the new Cruze and Malibu have similar styling and curb appeal.
Also, for a couple thousand more than a new Cruze, one can get into a Malibu 2LT with the 2.0 turbo. On top of that, Chevrolet is offering insane incentives for the new Malibu this month (and probably beyond).
Yeah, so 2016 Malibu 2.0T + TRIFECTA, you get a 300HP / 3300lb sedan for under $30k.
