Is the Chevrolet Cruze a good car?
Yes — the Chevrolet Cruze has broad appeal for used-car shoppers who want comfort, fuel efficiency, and a polished driving feel. The all-generations owner rating is 4.33/5 across every model year in the data.
Owners repeatedly praise the Cruze for its smooth handling, spacious interior, and strong fuel economy. Many also like the technology features and the comfortable, easy-to-live-with character that shows up across the model range.
20.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
Are Chevrolet Cruze models reliable?
Owners and experts consistently point to the Cruze’s comfort, efficiency, and well-equipped cabin as strengths, especially in later model years. The later Cruze generations also bring a more reassuring ownership experience than the earliest years, which helps explain why many used shoppers focus on the newer models.
- Owners rate the Chevrolet Cruze between 3.0 and 4.67 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.
For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is highest in the earlier years, while later models present a more appealing balance of value and everyday usability.
What Chevrolet Cruze do most buyers choose?
The Chevrolet Cruze years with the most listings are 2017, 2018, and 2016.
| Model Year | Total Listings | Good + Great Deals % |
|---|---|---|
| 2017 | 287 | 28.6% |
| 2018 | 277 | 28.5% |
| 2016 | 240 | 22.1% |
| 2015 | 197 | 17.8% |
| 2019 | 163 | 31.3% |
| 2014 | 161 | 11.8% |
These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they combine broad availability with the Cruze’s later-generation improvements in comfort, technology, and efficiency. More listings also give you more chances to compare condition, equipment, and price.
What is the Chevrolet Cruze's resale value?
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Over-Year Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2014 | $5,681 CAD | −22.17% |
| 2019 | $14,051 CAD | −14.44% |
| 2015 | $7,436 CAD | −13.0% |
| 2016 | $8,858 CAD | −11.57% |
| 2017 | $10,870 CAD | −11.54% |
| 2018 | $12,207 CAD | −11.13% |
The table shows broad year-over-year price declines across every model year listed, which can work in your favour if you're shopping used. The drops are all double-digit, so the market has moved down meaningfully rather than gradually. Among the newer years, the changes are clustered fairly closely together.
The 2018, 2017, and 2016 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

CarGurus recommends the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze
Summary
With 281 currently listed for sale and an average price of $12,198 CAD, 29.9% of 2018 Chevrolet Cruze listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favourably reviewed: Owners rated the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze 4.67 / 5 stars.
Why it stands out
The 2018 Chevrolet Cruze stands out as a compact car that tries to feel more polished and practical than many of its rivals. Chevrolet redesigned it for 2016 with better fuel economy, more rear seat room, and modern safety and infotainment technologies, and the 2018 model benefits from that more mature second-generation formula. It is also available with a practical five-door hatchback body style, which adds versatility for buyers who want more cargo flexibility than a sedan can offer.
For 2018, the Cruze’s appeal comes from its mix of efficiency, equipment, and everyday usability. The turbocharged 1.4-litre four-cylinder engine makes 153 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, and it can use as little as 6.8 L/100 km combined. The cabin is well equipped even in base form, with a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, OnStar, Bluetooth, keyless entry, and steering wheel-mounted controls. Higher trims could add features such as a sunroof, SiriusXM satellite radio, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and active safety systems including automatic emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alerts, blind spot alerts, and lane departure warnings with lane keep assist.
There are trade-offs, though. The Cruze’s styling is described as bland, and some cheap interior bits keep it from feeling fully premium. It is also not the strongest choice if outright power is a priority, and owner feedback notes that some drivers wish for more performance, especially with the air conditioning running. Even so, the 2018 Cruze remains appealing because it combines good fuel economy, a comfortable ride, useful technology, and a reputation for being much more reliable than the original Cruze.
