You probably know this by now, but the double pull hood release is pretty cool. The first pull pops the hood like the older cars, the second pull unlocks it so that you can just lift the hood and not have to pull the latch first. So basically, the second pull is the equivalent of sticking your hand under the cracked hood to pull the lever.
My brother just got one of these. Trim level below yours, but has all these same features. It's not a bad car, comfortable, surprisingly smooth and quiet, and great fuel economy. Decent styling. It's not fast but powerful enough to haul kids and get the groceries at a reasonable pace. The front end is styled oddly aggressive for what this car is. Would look great on some 17" wheels.
Hey, really like the videos and I have been watching for a couple years now. Looking at some of your older videos and really enjoying them! I hope to do something similar to you one day, I’m 14 and really like cars. Keep making the good content. I really like that s-class you just got!
Literally just bought this car. Even the same color. I went from a full size Chevy Silverado Pickup to this car. I'm still in transition shock from going from something so big to something so small but this car is fun and zippy. Drives beautiful. I lease my vehicles.
If you think that mileage on your road trip was amazing, I took a road trip and was averaging 51 miles to the gallon. I have to say in my opinion this car is amazing for the price I paid for it.
I own a 2017 Cruze LS and have had it now close to 2 months. I too have went from sports car to economy with this vehicle. I owned a 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0t. I have to tell you i was quite surprised at how much i enjoy the Cruze, the engine although, not powerful enough to win any races it does have some "get up and go". I love the economy it gives with the gas mileage and it doesn't hurt when i fill up the tank with $18 - $20 either. Only downside is no cruise control in the LS model. On that note keep on "Cruze'n" and enjoy your first new car.....oh the cookies were an awesome gesture from the dealer!
10:24 I was leaving the video on in the background with headphones on. When you jumped to the next scene and the voice came from center to one headphone, I legit shuddered, thought someone came into my room right over my shoulder lol
Just got a Cruze as well. The hood release is odd and different but it works. You pull it once to open the hood and again to unlatch it so you don't have to put your fingers under the hood to unlatch it.
Last year I purchased the 2016 Chevy Malibu LT fully maxed out on options. It's a great car and I've been really impressed with it... I feel like the Cruze is a mini Malibu....Nice purchase
I purchased one because it's a comfortable econobox that I can put tons of miles. I get really good gas mileage. I'm not sure if it was a certain deal but I got 2 years of Sirius xm and 24gb of free data with $5500k off. There isn't one dislike I can say about this car. The worse mpg I've ever got is 27mpg
the fuel economy is on point , I got over 450 miles a tank when I had the 2016 1LT in silver. the brakes are nice and strong. but the powertrain would lag, it would sometimes jolt the car especially when the a/c was on. the aesthetics inside and out is good too.
450 miles to a tank meaning it's only getting average 32 MPG since the car hold only 14 gallon fuel. That's what I have experience when renting a 2015 Cruze. LOL Fue economy is over stating on this car and it has a little 1.4L Turbo.
With the Diesel, I get close to 700 miles. I drive between 75 and 85, so it eats a bit in the economy, but if I was constantly on a 2 lane highway at 60, then I would easily get 700 miles with it.
I have the same car in diesel (1.6L). It regularly reports well over 50 MPG on highway and is overall a fun experience. It feels pretty powerful when I go to accelerate and has just enough rumble to remind me occasionally that I'm driving something with an engine in it :D
I bought the 17 Cruze TDI as well last August. Nice car, but the only thing I wish it had, is a stiffer suspension like a Jetta has. Had a 2013 Jetta TDI before that and taking curves at 75 was easy. With the Cruze, 65 MAX!!!. Yes, you can replace shocks with something better, but I think that if GM really wants to be the new "TDI" equivalent, they need to put stiffer suspension in there. Other than that, very nice car.
@@ericwood3709 once you drive a Jetta you'll feel the difference. The cruze is fine and I do like it, but if they can just put better suspension it would even be better. I go 80-85 on a regular basis with it and it's pretty stable.
@@bmw803 Speed limits where I live usually don't exceed 65, so I wouldn't drive any car quite that fast :D I wonder more about how the performance feels in one versus the other, like acceleration and the feel of the automatic, not to mention actual fuel economy. Those considerations would matter most to me.
After the crash of 2008, GM has made great improvements on all their cars and trucks. Better reliability, higher quality, and an overall better product. Nice ride man. How much do these things cost new?
How can you say you only buy Audi and 60k cars and proceed to say that this 17k car is a piece of shit? That is a 40k difference. This car is good for what it is
when opening a normal hood, you pull the lever once, then you ha e to find the lock peice under the hood to open it up. when you open the cruzes hood, you pull the lever twice, once to pop the hood, and twice to unlock it because there is no lock you have to find under the hood to open it all the way. no more digging your hand into it to open it.
By watching this i learn that reading is fundamental..🤦🏾♂️.. pet peeve keep pulling on the hood release.. pull it once to open pull it again to Unlatch
Nice car, nice colour and Very interesting and good review..thinking of getting one too...did u find passing power enough on highway ?i know its not a mustang ..lol but decent passing power?
Mustang in Brazil is a really rare car, a classic. So we tend to not understand your choice. The economy of fuel you may have is undeniable.Terrific engine.
Good video, I Was surprised to see you got a gift from the dealer, I guess My dealer does'nt thank I'ts customers sl I missed out on those delicious cookies, but at least I got a $1700 discount. I Owned a 2016 Chevy Cruze Premier with RS package, really Liked the car, It was a nice and smooth daily driver until the turbo started losing power on the highway after 24,000 miles. Chevy fixed it under warranty but I lost faith in my Cruze for Long Road trips. I sold the car, now I own a Golf GTI 2018, it drives sooo much better than the Cruze. Never owned a VW before so I'm crossing my fingers, hope it turns out to be reliable.
My '15 Accord with 2.4 litre engine averages 40 mpg on the highway. Love it especially when I commute 60 miles a day. Glad you like your new car, Randy.
I think you're over stating the MPG a little too much on your 15 Accord. Maybe, as you travel down the road and it may shown 40 MPG for a bit with a strong tail wind . I have two Accord a 2014 Accord LX and a 2015 Accord Sport both CVT and the average MPG depends on temperature as well. In the winter in MN, it's average 30-32 MPG mix 90% freeway driving. Spring and fall it's 2 mpg better.
I'm a bit gun shy with the Cruze. I know the Cruze had fire issues with their turbos prior to this body style change. It also looks a bit cheap but I haven't looked at one in person.
I have the 2019 LT with RS package got it with 9 miles and I now have 1000 miles on it and honestly it’s a decent car if ur not hard to please but for me I would prefer a WRX or Mustang but according to my situation I could not buy those cars so I got a Cruze oh well a new car is a new car gotta be humble
An enjoyable tribute to a great car. But, you can tell that beneath the surface we're looking at a man who is mourning the loss of his Mustang, and trying very hard to convince himself that he made the right choice.
I have a 2017 Cruze. In gentle suburban and highway driving (timing the traffic lights, no significant traffic jams), my driver information display can show a 47+ mpg average. This corresponds to an actual MPG of 44-45. This even though I have a hatchback that's rated 38 highway. Much depends on your driving style and the roads you drive on.
At times I've thought that the back appeared unfinished, as if they just half-assed it. I own a 2015 I bought new and admittedly had wanted one of the new redesigned models but not so much anymore as it looks just to small. Give me the exterior of the old Cruze and the interior of the new Cruze and then I'd be happy... I got a ton of cookies from my dealer when I bought me Cruze as well. They were good also!
@@krblanco Exactly, this version looks smaller due to the curvy design (It's actually slightly bigger). I prefer the significant 3 box design of the old one.
Non-car-related question: what mic did you use to record the indoor segment - the part with the cookies? Love how it sounds! (Also loving' my new Cruze!)
That was an early science expierment...Extended roadtest for the mass type thing. Then they stuffed that motor in a bigger heavier CTS. After ya'll modded & ho trodded the carp outta it.
No they didn't. Its blowing pistons like crazy. LSPI Running 17psi stock on a totally leaned out engine @1800 RPM is recipe for disaster.. It isn't only GM having the issues. But many MFGs. Pistons tend to go around 5,000mi - 30,000mi. Sometimes longer though. Depends how you drive and if its Auto or Manual. Just basically lugging the crap out of itself when the turbo is able to spool at maximum. Avoiding lugging the engine helps. Otherwise run 91/93 octane and don't get into the low end to much. It's all over google.
Mine has 25,000 miles on it and no piston has blowned out yet. If they were blowing pistons like flies, there would have been a massive recall already.
How do you switch cars so much? how does it work when you want to switch cars but are still owing money to pay off the car? Did you already pay off the mustang?
I just got a Chevy Cruze today. Was upside down on my loan so I did a rollover. With the MSRP from the Cruze(And apparently my girlfriends car.. Which she got a Spark today also) I went from owing 7k and the car being worth 1.5k(VW Jetta 106k miles) to just owing 2k. It's just all about how you approach them and what kind of sales are going on apparently. I owe 30k on this Cruze, but it's worth it because of the 6 year or 100k mile warranty.
Are you sure on the 4g and xm... I have a 2017 premier model I have 1 year xm... 2 years on star and 2 years or 24 gig on the 4g... had it for a year and love it
need your opinion randy I bought a 2010 ford crown vic 2 months ago for uber and lyft just got it on the road. do think I will have problems . getting rides with it is white and black also still has the cage in it and window gourds.
I've never heard of that before. Passengers are not going to be happy with a cop car and cage. Your ratings will most likely drop to the point they terminate you. Be careful.
It’s actually a well put together vehicle. I say that because who would know better than a technician in a body shop for over 40 years. If anyone has seen every car manufacturer come though after some very extensive accidents. With that said my daughter loves this car but Gm had a huge brain fart while making this. I would love for one official at GM to tell me why you can not not have all the safety features along with the sunroof and sound package. Ridiculous. That along with the annoying stop start feature that will drive you insane. It’s a deal breaker so this lease is going back soon
@uber man. Do you know why the sedan gets 2 mpg better gas mileage than the hatchback? I couldn't find the curb weight to compare but could it have to do with the fact that the hatch is a slightly taller? I rented the hatch for a week to drive around Boulder Colorado and I loved it. It drives like a nicer car than what it is. I also rented the sedan a few years ago in San Diego California and I loved t then.
Aerodynamics, sedan is about 8" longer than the hatch, and the hatch has a spoiler. It's 2mpg highway, city is same so probably about 1mph overall. I rented a 2014 and liked it, and I tried renting a late model Cruze today to evaluate the start/stop and new infotainment system.
Greg Marsh I almost bought the 2018 hatchback base LT model. They lowered the price to $17,500 & I still hesitated in pulling the trigger. What ruined it for Chevy was me test driving Mazda 3's. Normally aspirated engine has no lag, better interior & the seats are super ergonomic. I decided to hold off for now. I figured the mpg had to do with the shape.
Oh! Yeah, Mazda 3 is much better cars compares to the Cruze as far as engine and driving dynamic goes. Ride and noise quality is about the same but the cruze might be a little bit quieter depends on the tires. I had driven them both as a rental/loaner cars.
They don't flicker. What you are seeing is the effect of the incompatibility of frequency of the LED strobing VS the camera's limited frame rate. LED's strobe with the electrical frequency, you can't see it with the naked eye, its too fast, but a camera can pick it up.
Uber Man I got a few questions I’m 17 and I really like this car to be my first car I want to know your experience I have a business and I move around a lot is it good on gas and.etc is the radio great
You are pulling the hood lever wrong that's why you don't like it. Pull I straight back. You are trying to pull it to the side. The handle goes out to the left so it is behind the door when the door is shut. You'll notice inside the car with the door shut you can't open the hood. You pull it twice because one is the release, the other is the safety.
5yr/60k mile powertrain? Wow, that number keeps getting lower and lower.. on my 1st gen Cruze I had a 100k warranty and they use to offer it even higher than that.
I know this may be odd, but I’ve been looking for different phone holders for my car and none seem to work. Where did you get yours from and what is it called?
It will be a tight squeeze for your passengers, if you're that big and tall. Rear leg rooms are much better then 2016 model but still small. You'll get better rear leg rooms by getting a Sentra or Alitma with similar MPG.
Ours 2018 gets 50 mpg 40 going to work half and half. Not slow, here in Idaho altitudes of 4000 to 9000 the turbo makes all the difference. Base model. Our Mazda is 2.5 top of the line. We prefer the Chevy, faster at high altitudes. A lot less road noise, Mazda is noisy in comparison.
I thought you didn’t own a 2017 Cruze you keep saying you never owned one so I thought I’d leave a comment on your actual video on your Cruze how come you say you never owned one 🤷♂️
They made the interior a little better n the outside a little uglier .. still a nice car tho. I got the 14 Cruz n like it so far but I already want to upgrade to a 6 cylinder cuz this car has no power n the turbo has a little lag.
You probably know this by now, but the double pull hood release is pretty cool. The first pull pops the hood like the older cars, the second pull unlocks it so that you can just lift the hood and not have to pull the latch first. So basically, the second pull is the equivalent of sticking your hand under the cracked hood to pull the lever.
Yes, it's great once you finally figure it out.....

Awesome review! I purchased a 2017 Cruze, and have never been happier. Everything about this car comes through perfectly!
I hate the current management for canceling this car.
Nice man my girlfriend has a 2014 Cruze, drives very smoothly. Car looks fresh!
I have a 2012 Cruze as well and it's still strong with 102K on it.

I bought a brand new premier RS. I really like the car. Has all the bells and whistles. Nice car man! Hope it’s still treating ya well!
I bet most mechanics will tell you the auto stop does nothing but wears out parts prematurely. Common sense also.

I'm glad i saw how to open the hood-i have to clean the leaves out of my wife's car today!

My 2012 Cruze ECO has the same 1.4L-T and she's got 102K on her. They are great cars for sure.
NEFF! Channel I think the reason why it earns more gas miliage because when you stop the engine turns off
Not sure you still have it. I just got one Chevy Cruze LT HB 56k miles love the car even though I only got 35 mpg

Uber Man Your Welcome
looks like Chevy finally learned how to make a decent turbo charged 4 cylinder.
Indeed.
guess yall havent heard of the cobalt ss? lol
That was an early science expierment...Extended roadtest for the mass type thing. Then they stuffed that motor in a bigger heavier CTS. After ya'll modded & ho trodded the carp outta it.
No they didn't. Its blowing pistons like crazy. LSPI
Running 17psi stock on a totally leaned out engine @1800 RPM is recipe for disaster..
It isn't only GM having the issues. But many MFGs.
Pistons tend to go around 5,000mi - 30,000mi.
Sometimes longer though. Depends how you drive and if its Auto or Manual.
Just basically lugging the crap out of itself when the turbo is able to spool at maximum.
Avoiding lugging the engine helps. Otherwise run 91/93 octane and don't get into the low end to much.

You have a little cooler cars nowadays 😊
My Chevy Dealer called me right now about a Cruze I looked at this summer. This review will determine if I get it.
Let us know what you decided!
Uber Man I got my new Cruze last night at Tracy Chevy. I love it so far. Its silver.
@@joeriveracomedy hows it held?
How do you switch cars so much? how does it work when you want to switch cars but are still owing money to pay off the car? Did you already pay off the mustang?
I always pay enough down so I am never, ever upside down on a car loan. That's how I do it.
Uber Man chevy really likes you! Oooooh you should get the Malibu
I just got a Chevy Cruze today. Was upside down on my loan so I did a rollover. With the MSRP from the Cruze(And apparently my girlfriends car.. Which she got a Spark today also) I went from owing 7k and the car being worth 1.5k(VW Jetta 106k miles) to just owing 2k. It's just all about how you approach them and what kind of sales are going on apparently. I owe 30k on this Cruze, but it's worth it because of the 6 year or 100k mile warranty.
Hows the car so far??? Im getting one next year.....
Are you sure on the 4g and xm... I have a 2017 premier model I have 1 year xm... 2 years on star and 2 years or 24 gig on the 4g... had it for a year and love it
need your opinion randy I bought a 2010 ford crown vic 2 months ago for uber and lyft just got it on the road. do think I will have problems . getting rides with it is white and black also still has the cage in it and window gourds.
You'll end up deactivated fast with that. Last time I checked Crown Vic's were not even eligible for Uber.
uber already excepted it And approved it
I've never heard of that before. Passengers are not going to be happy with a cop car and cage. Your ratings will most likely drop to the point they terminate you. Be careful.
I will have to make some money then I will get a Maco paint job on it.
Riders won't be too happy with that
That way you would have a fun car to drive around and a good economic car when going on road trips or driving around town
My fiance uses the other Cruze. I needed something for myself that is more practical with much lower payments as I mentioned already.
Love that color
It’s actually a well put together vehicle. I say that because who would know better than a technician in a body shop for over 40 years. If anyone has seen every car manufacturer come though after some very extensive accidents. With that said my daughter loves this car but Gm had a huge brain fart while making this. I would love for one official at GM to tell me why you can not not have all the safety features along with the sunroof and sound package. Ridiculous. That along with the annoying stop start feature that will drive you insane. It’s a deal breaker so this lease is going back soon
Does yours have seat heaters? Mines located by my right knee. Left knee on the passengers side...
Hi Uber Man. Can you please tell me where the jack and wrench are located? I only see a tire in mine.
Anne's 2 Cents maybe its behind the tire
@uber man. Do you know why the sedan gets 2 mpg better gas mileage than the hatchback? I couldn't find the curb weight to compare but could it have to do with the fact that the hatch is a slightly taller? I rented the hatch for a week to drive around Boulder Colorado and I loved it. It drives like a nicer car than what it is. I also rented the sedan a few years ago in San Diego California and I loved t then.
Aerodynamics, sedan is about 8" longer than the hatch, and the hatch has a spoiler. It's 2mpg highway, city is same so probably about 1mph overall. I rented a 2014 and liked it, and I tried renting a late model Cruze today to evaluate the start/stop and new infotainment system.
Greg Marsh I almost bought the 2018 hatchback base LT model. They lowered the price to $17,500 & I still hesitated in pulling the trigger. What ruined it for Chevy was me test driving Mazda 3's. Normally aspirated engine has no lag, better interior & the seats are super ergonomic. I decided to hold off for now. I figured the mpg had to do with the shape.
Oh! Yeah, Mazda 3 is much better cars compares to the Cruze as far as engine and driving dynamic goes. Ride and noise quality is about the same but the cruze might be a little bit quieter depends on the tires. I had driven them both as a rental/loaner cars.
How did you make the headlight leds flicker?
ericrk1 that what I been trying
G to figure out for the longest
They don't flicker. What you are seeing is the effect of the incompatibility of frequency of the LED strobing VS the camera's limited frame rate. LED's strobe with the electrical frequency, you can't see it with the naked eye, its too fast, but a camera can pick it up.
gerble36 lol NERD
Great looking car! Your all set to go earn .56 cents per mile now

Do you use a camera app on your phone when you make youtube videos on your cell?
You are pulling the hood lever wrong that's why you don't like it. Pull I straight back. You are trying to pull it to the side. The handle goes out to the left so it is behind the door when the door is shut. You'll notice inside the car with the door shut you can't open the hood. You pull it twice because one is the release, the other is the safety.
Just bought the 2017 hatchback. How does it handle in the snow?
Piston replacement yet?
5yr/60k mile powertrain? Wow, that number keeps getting lower and lower.. on my 1st gen Cruze I had a 100k warranty and they use to offer it even higher than that.
Nathon Cupit yep that’s why I bought a Elantra , especially if you get turbo that power train us piece of mind
nice car....is leather seats available in that model?
Yes
This car is also very save. I guess, it used one of the first model Poscos giga steel.
BTW: Is your Atari still running? ;o)
I just bought another one, a 2018 Cruze LT Sedan 1.4L. I got $8250 off sticker.
Is it doing well?
I want the diesel but I might settle for the petrol I just want a cheap daily.
i like the outside but it just doesnt compare to the inside interior of the mazda 3. not even close.
i got the blue one nxt week.. yeehayy!
Hi. I question how well on transmission is far you know
Would be better with a Auto Start Stop (A.S.S.) disable button.
Drive in L (6). It operates like full automatic still and it will disable the auto stop.
Did Hyundai dealer charge you some money since you already drove that Hyundai for a few days?
No, they can't do that.
I know this may be odd, but I’ve been looking for different phone holders for my car and none seem to work. Where did you get yours from and what is it called?
I've used this one for years with no issue and it's wireless charging too: amzn.to/2wuTIB1
Hey, I’m an Uber driver considering a 2017 or 18 Cruze. How’s the rear passenger room? I’m a big guy, 6’2” 300 lbs.
It will be a tight squeeze for your passengers, if you're that big and tall. Rear leg rooms are much better then 2016 model but still small. You'll get better rear leg rooms by getting a Sentra or Alitma with similar MPG.
Can you test drive the cruze hatchback manual thanks
I thought every second generation Cruzes came with Touch start button!
not the base model
Why get rid of the mustang though?
The mustang payment was $700/mo before $150 insurance. Tired of the payment, tired of the 10MPG, and wanted something more practical.
I blame UA-cam for being a hoe and not paying people for their hard work on here.
I can't lie that did hurt me as it did others on here.
Randy GM gives you 3/36k bumper to bumper and 5/100k power train where’s this car now is Mrs Uber man driving it today in 2018 ?
Traded it in. :) Got a '17 Mustang GT now.
What you using to Uber Lyft in these days ?
I have the 2018 Cruze
Riley Smith I'm considering getting one. You like yours?
trier4952 love it!! 43 miles on hwy 33 in city.
Riley Smith gas?
Ours 2018 gets 50 mpg 40 going to work half and half. Not slow, here in Idaho altitudes of 4000 to 9000 the turbo makes all the difference. Base model. Our Mazda is 2.5 top of the line. We prefer the Chevy, faster at high altitudes. A lot less road noise, Mazda is noisy in comparison.
I just got a Chevy Cruze. I took a road trip and I can hear all the bumps on the freeway. Is that normal?
It's not normal. The Cruze actually has an amazingly smooth suspension.
So how much did you pay after the rebate
Made in Korea, no longer made I think. Sold in Australia as the Holden Astra !
What ever happened to this car randy?
are you renting it on Turo? Are you still doing Turo?
It's on Turo but it's not listed. I may not rent this one.
Uber Man i wouldn't rent it.
Atari 400 !! The best part of the video !!
Close. Atari 800.
I thought you didn’t own a 2017 Cruze you keep saying you never owned one so I thought I’d leave a comment on your actual video on your Cruze how come you say you never owned one 🤷♂️
why trade the mustang gt
They made the interior a little better n the outside a little uglier .. still a nice car tho. I got the 14 Cruz n like it so far but I already want to upgrade to a 6 cylinder cuz this car has no power n the turbo has a little lag.
Excellent vehicle, I love my 2013 Cruze RS 2LT, which was MY first brand new car.
great vid
I want cookies 🍪 !!!
Why go from mustang to a Cruze????
Why didn’t you get the top of the line
I didn't want to.
