Ginn Chevrolet serving the greater Atlanta area will introduce consumers to the new 2011 Chevy Cruze in October. The Cruze boasts good looks and lots of safety features too.Atlanta Chevrolet dealer, Ginn Chevrolet, recently announced plans to debut the new 2011 Chevy Cruze at theirCovington Chevy dealershipin October. The 2011 Chevrolet Cruze will replace Cobalt as the compact car from General Motors' volume division. Cruze is a 4-door sedan that comes in LS, LT, LTZ, and fuel-economy-oriented Eco trim levels. The LS has a 136-horsepower 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine. The LT, LTZ, and Eco use a 138-horsepower turbocharged 1.4-liter 4-cylinder engine. A 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission is available on all models. Among the available features are a wireless cell-phone link and navigation system. Cruze Eco models have ultra-low-rolling-resistance tires and other aerodynamic tweaks designed to increase fuel economy. Available on the LT and LTZ is an RS Appearance Package, which includes specific wheels and exterior trim. The new compact Chevrolet Cruze is not only a good-looking vehicle, but also boasts many safety features. "We are very confident of the safety performance of the Cruze and believe it will prove to be one of the safest vehicles in the segment," said Chuck Russell, vehicle line director at the Milford Proving Ground, where future vehicles are tested. "To benefit our customers, we went way beyond requirements to exceed government safety mandates."The list of standard safety features on all models includes dual stage airbags, head-curtain airbags mounted in the roof rail, seat mounted, side-impact airbags, front and rear, front passenger seat occupant sensing system, and rollover sensing and protection system as well as a collapsible pedal assembly, which can minimize injuries to the driver in a head-on collision. The Cruze achieved 96 percent in adult occupant protection, making it the runner-up this year in the category and beating all tested premium brands, GM officials said.Chevy has also provided a comparison showing that the Cruze has nine standard features that cost extra on the Honda Civic, including satellite radio, traction control and Air Conditioning. Downsizing has become a fact of life in the compact segment where consumers both expect fuel economy approaching 40 miles per gallon and a comfortable interior as well, and the CruzCruze blueprint calls for more than you'd expect. That's why every Cruze has the OnStar Directions&Connections plan® — including Turn-by-Turn Navigation — standard for the first six months. Hands-free calling is available with Bluetooth® wireless technology for select phones. An available USB port for your iPod® and XM Radio for three trial months give you plenty of entertainment options. Best of all, treat your senses to the available nine-speaker Pioneer® sound system.
