2017 Chevy Cruze Turbo Diesel Fuel Economy Numbers<\/h2>\n

Just this morning, we received word from the Environmental Protection Agency that was somewhat surprising. Of course, we knew that the Cruze Turbo Diesel would offer terrific fuel economy, but this was a pleasant piece of serendipity.
\n\"2017Powered by a 1.6L, four-cylinder turbo diesel engine, the 2017 Chevy Cruze Turbo Diesel rewards buyers with 137 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque. In terms of fuel economy, the Cruze Turbo Diesel, when mated to a six-speed manual transmission, returns an astonishing 52 highway mpg. To put this in perspective, this means that a single tank of diesel fuel results in a 700-mile range. In practical terms, this means that you could fill your Cruze Turbo Diesel in Milwaukee, head south, and arrive nine hours later in Memphis with 80 miles to spare. That\u2019s some serious fuel economy.<\/p>\n
