Video review: Does the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze Eco have the technology to get 40 MPG?

Cruze

The 2011 Chevrolet Cruze Eco is one of a new breed of non-hybrid fuel efficient cars.

It competes with cars like the Honda Civic, the Toyota Corolla, the Ford Focus and the Hyundai Elantra for the younger entry level buyer.

BTW: You can read our review of the the standard Chevrolet Cruse HERE.

Unlike the standard Chevrolet Cruse, the high mileage Eco version of the car is packed with enhancements to get the most out of every drop of fuel. Chevy has equipped it with the 1.4L engine from the Volt and to make it perform better Chevrolet also strapped on a turbo for 138 HP.

The Cruze Eco is also lighter and more aerodynamic that the standard car.

But does it have enough technology to reach 40 MPG on the highway without the need for an expensive hybrid battery?

That’s the question we answer in the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze Eco video review below.
