Cruze / Sonic Family 0 Turbo Engine Averages 64+ MPG

Thats right, GM recently announced how a Chevy Cruze ECO logged a cross-country drive with just over 9,500 miles and averaged 64+ MPG. This should be welcomed news for Sonic fans because the Cruze ECO is coupled with the same 1.4 turbo engine and six-speed manual transmission that is offered as an available option for the 2012 Chevy Sonic model.

The individuals driving the Cruze ECO are MPG experts to say the least and were apart of a special sponsorship from Shell Gasoline called the Smarter Driving Tour.  Understandably, the vast majority of commuters out there will not be able to achieve the same kind of results.  But these results should serve as a strong benchmark for drivers to know there are real ways to achieve a maximum MPG.  To read more about this recent news release please visit GM website, and the Shell website.
