Cruze rocks!! I got mine recently...

Exterior Too good to resist. Heavy reinforced metal and fine body curves. Good aerodynamics. Great front appearence.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Space is definitely less that civic. But anyone who is interested in "driver's car" should go for it. One who wants "passanger's car" should stay away from it. Cockpit style front is amazing. Rer leg room is less as compared to competitors. Dashboard looks great but feels notchy because of hard plastics. But anyway i like it.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Those who are migrating from petrol car. Beware of the tourbo lag. Only after 1700 rpm the beast starts showing its action. Then nothing can stop it. On highways this car is a king. But can be cumbersome for bumper to bumper driving. Great fuel economy. I get 14 kmpl at average 110 km/hr speed. Great for such a big car. The torque is amazing and definitely high as compared to civic (i own a civic also) and this car can leave behind all cars on road. Cruze control adds to the comfort but needs some learning curve. Breaking is efficient and consistent.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent control over the car breaking. Stearing is small and has sporty look and hence easy to navigate. The controls are easy to learn and implement. The car is responsive to accelerator after 1700 rpm and power generated is much more than a comparable petrol car. Noise reduction is excellent. Suspentions are fit to sustain indian roads but definitely this is not the perfect car for off road drive.

Final Words Great Future in world market, very difficult to resist.

Areas of improvement Ground clearance, Interior quality, Rear leg room, Facility for USB aux in and GPS connections to the dashboard.
