Holden Cruze Engines and Transmissions

The Holden Cruze engine in these examples is a 1.5-litre petrol unit, small enough to keep fuel bills and servicing modest. The 1.5 MT manual suits drivers who want direct control, while the 1.5 AT automatic eases stop-start traffic. Both versions use an all-wheel-drive drivetrain for added traction.
