Cruzing at 44 mpg


Published: Thu, October 22, 2009 @ 5:20 a.m.

Apparently, 40 mpg is not good enough for the Chevrolet Cruze.

General Motors is trying to squeeze 44 mpg out of the new small car that will be launched from its Lordstown complex in April, Motor Trend reported. That’s with an automatic transmission.

Shooting for 44 mpg is a higher goal than GM revealed in January when it displayed the Cruze at a car show in Detroit.

Chuck Russell, vehicle line director for the Cruze, said then that GM was targeting 40 mpg for a Cruze with a manual transmission and a bit less for the automatic version.

Motor Trend, an industry magazine, said, however, that GM has brought in a special team of engineers to create a Cruze XFE model that will include an automatic transmission.

I know this is JUST the Vindicator but don't you think "Cruzing at 44 mpg" would be a more suitable title if you're writing about the 44 mpg gas mileage.
