When you buy a relatively small car you expect a few things, chief among them being you expect to get a great fuel economy. It’s maybe the biggest advantage to going small when buying a car, getting to fill up at the pump without your wallet taking a beating. When it comes to the 2018 Chevy Cruze, it delivers on that expectation and more, getting up to an EPA-estimated 31 miles per gallon city and 47 miles per gallon highway with its 1.6L ECOTEC DOHC Turbo Diesel 4-cylinder engine.

The main reason for the Chevy Cruze’s phenomenal fuel economy is its diesel engine. The 1.6L ECOTEC DOHC Turbo Diesel 4-cylinder engine is the latest in engine technology that gives drivers the best fuel efficiency available. The 2018 Chevy Cruze Diesel Sedan bumps up to a whopping 52 miles per gallon on the highway and 37 miles per gallon combined when you choose the manual transmission option. That gives you an EPA-estimated maximum highway range of over 700 miles on a single tank gas. Think of all the places you can go for just the price of one tank of gas!

That’s not to say the 2018 Chevy Cruze lacks in power and performance in any way. The 2018 Cruze Diesel Sedan will still generate a solid 137 horsepower for you, and will also give you an impressive amount of torque at 240 lb.-ft to play with. It also includes front-wheel drive and the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system that automatically enhances your control, especially during emergency maneuvers, by adjusting brakes and engine torque.
