New York Auto Show: 2011 Chevrolet Cruze

Chevrolet rolled out the Cruze Eco model at this week's media preview of the New York auto show, a new compact sedan that gets up to 40 mpg on the highway.

The Cruze will go on sale in the third quarter and will offer the best fuel economy in the compact segment among nonhybrid models.

The Cruze Eco uses other innovative strategies to squeeze out more mileage. For example, the compact car reduces drag at higher speeds by closing of shutters in its lower grille. Also contributing to the car's elevated fuel efficiency are a deep front air dam and under-body panels.

In addition to the Eco model, the Cruze will also be offered in LS, LT and LTZ trim levels. The LS gets a 1.8-liter four, while the two higher trims get the turbo. Drivers wishing for a sportier appearance can opt for the RS package, which adds fog lamps, rocker panel extensions and a rear spoiler. The RS pack also brings an upgraded interior featuring chrome trim and backlit instrument cluster bezels.
