The Car Concerns Radio Car-Of-The-Week: 2011 Chevrolet Cruze LTZ Turbo

Harry and the Car Concerns Radio Crew have been cruising in the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze LTZ Turbo at the Car Concerns Radio Proving Grounds.

It seems that manufacturing progress is everyone's business at General Motors these days as they roll the new 2011 Chevrolet Cruze LTZ out the Chevy Dealer Showrooms across the USA and around the World.

This 2011 Chevy Cruze LTZ is World Class and a vehicle that can compete for the auto consumers hard earned transportation dollar. The Chevrolet Cruze LTZ offers exceptional design and performance that represents a true automotive value.

Sporty yet classy, simple yet luxurious says it all here. This Cruze has solutions that most compacts don't offer. One is standard six-speed transmissions, like the manual in Cruze LS that helps offer 26 MPG city and 36 highway.

The 2011 Chevy Cruze LTZ offers upscale presence with the fuel economy and price tag of a compact. And with its sculpted exterior and refined interior, it feels more like a sanctuary than a car when you're behind the wheel. Looks like you'll have to get used to more if you make the decision to own this fantastic G.M. offering.

More Safety

The Cruze is designed to offer continuous protection to you and your precious cargo. It's more safety than you're used to, but you'll adjust.

With the fuel economy of a compact car and the amenities of a mid-size, the Chevrolet Cruze LTZ gives you the best of two worlds. Making a choice can be difficult, so don't.
More Features

With all its upscale amenities and features like available navigation and refined interior finishes, the 2011 Chevy Cruze LTZ offers a premium driving experience.

The Car Concerns Radio Crew after running the 2011 Chevy Cruze through the paces at the Car Concerns Radio Proving Grounds has determined that it rates off of the Automotive Charts! Go drive one and see for yourself!
