It’s just another way Chevrolet is taking fuel-efficiency to the next level with the Cruze, which will also feature such technologies as variable valve timing and, on the Cruze Eco model, a unique grille-shutter system. The latter automatically opens or closes slats in the car’s grille to optimize engine cooling and aerodynamics based on driving conditions. Other efficiency enhancers for the Cruze Eco include 17-inch alloy wheels with ultra low-rolling resistance tires, as well as a comprehensive aero-oriented body-kit.
