Chevy Cruze vs Honda Civic

chevy cruze vs civicThere are often comparisons drawn between the 2012 Honda Civic and The 2012 Chevy Cruze because they both offer great value for compact cars. After this review, you should be able to decide which car is the better buy.

You can get the base model Cruze for as little as $16,800, but you should consider the Cruze ECO as well. The ECO is one of the most efficient gasoline engines in any American vehicle at 42 mpg highway. In terms of overall interior space, the 2012 Chevy Cruze and 2012 Honda Civic match up comparably in head and legroom, however they don't in trunk space.

The Cruze gives you an additional 3 cubic feet of cargo volume than the Civic meaning the advantage here goes to the Cruze. You'll definitely find a need for that additional trunk space at some point in your travels.

Safety is always an important issue when you and your family are on the road. You'll be comforted to know that the Chevrolet focused heavily on safety when designing the 2012 Chevy Cruze. While both vehicles received Top Safety Picks, the Cruze received a 5 star rating in comparison to the Honda Civic which managed to score a less than impressive rating of 3 stars. Not enough? How does 10 airbags sound? The 2012 Chevy Cruze is one of the few compact cars on the market to offer that many. We should also mention the 5 year/100k mile warranty makes sure you are covered for a long time.


Let's be honest, the 2012 Cruze didn't receive the U.S. News and World Report award for "Best Compact Car for the Money" for nothing. Chevy Runs Deep.
