“You'll like the way the Cruze sips gas and how its handsome cabin has a surprising amount of room for you and your passengers.”

“It shares all of the sedan's updates and changes and doesn't really bring any new content to the party — it rides on the same suspension, uses the same powertrain and has the same interior. The biggest difference is the uptick in usable maximum cargo capacity when the rear seats are folded.”
If you like the idea of owning a hatchback that gives you extra room for storage when you need it, the Cruze Hatchback is clearly the way to go. In addition to offering up more standard cargo space in back than the sedan, you can also fold down the rear seat to access a max cargo area of 47.2 cubic feet.
Car and Driver

On top of the practicality, style, and entertainment of the 2017 Chevy Cruze Hatchback, you’ll also find that this model delivers a quiet and serene cabin environment—even when you reach highway speed limits.
