Chevrolet Cruze Vs Honda Civic
Clash of titans, close call but one passes the chequered flag and the other stays. These two cars are one of the best in the auto segment at the moment. They are perfect in what they do. The Civic is long and has the best tuned up engine for performance.
On the other hand the Cruze is long with power and style. The need of buying these cars is just for passion and craze. They are best cars when it comes to long distance traveling. Unlike other cars they do not faint or go pale when power shifting is being done.

Interiors and looks
It has to be the Civic which has the best interiors. Various features and buttons are given to make sure you have a smooth techno drive. The Cruze on the other hand is subtle when it comes to looks and show off. The digital speedometer on the Civic looks perfect when you stare at the car.Handling and feel
Both of them have power steering which works perfect when you are in rev mood. Handling the Civic is difficult since it has a powerful engine, but with the use of electronic steering it’s a piece of cake. The Cruze on the other hand has top-notch steering too which works wonders.

Engine and response
The Civic throttles up to three digit mark in less time, so does the Cruze. Both of them have superb engine power. You really need to fasten your seat belts when you are in the Cruze of the Civic. Engine setup of the Civic is according to slow pick up and high top end. The Cruze is exactly the opposite in the engine setup.

Time to go to the ATM
It has to be the Civic, but be ready to spend a lot on maintenance. The Chevrolet on the other hand promises low maintenance. Both of them are equal when it comes to performance.

    I am planning to buy a D-segment car and wanted to go for cruze as I really liked it from outside. However, post seeing cruze’s interiors vs civic’s interiors, cruze is way behind…I was disappointed and now not sure if should buy the old civic or wait for new civic or any other upcoming new car…
