About This 2017 Chevrolet Cruze LT Sedan

The 2017 Chevrolet Cruze represents one of the stronger generations of this nameplate — a complete redesign that gave it a roomier interior, more refined ride, and sharper styling than its predecessor. At 145,375 miles, this is a vehicle that has clearly served its previous owner well, and the good news is that the Cruze 1.4L turbocharged engine is well-known for holding up at higher mileages when properly maintained. Buyers comfortable with higher-mileage vehicles will find this LT trim to be an exceptional value — the purchase price reflects the miles, but the bones of this car remain solid.

This is a front-wheel-drive sedan, which is practical and predictable in Michigan winters when paired with a good set of snow tires. The compact size makes it easy to park and maneuver through metro Detroit traffic, while the interior volume surprises most first-time Cruze buyers.

2017 Chevrolet Cruze Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Chevrolet's 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, one of the more underrated powerplants in the compact sedan segment. This engine produces around 153 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque — numbers that feel livelier than they read on paper, thanks to the torque arriving early in the RPM range. Paired with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission, the Cruze delivers confident acceleration from stoplights and easy highway merging without feeling strained.

One of the biggest selling points of this drivetrain is fuel economy. Real-world drivers regularly report mid-to-upper 30s on the highway, making this an outstanding choice for anyone with a long commute on I-94, I-75, or the Downriver corridor. The front-wheel-drive layout keeps mechanical complexity low, which helps keep long-term maintenance costs manageable.

2017 Chevrolet Cruze LT Features and Interior

The LT trim sits comfortably in the middle of the Cruze lineup and brings a meaningful step up from the base LS. Inside, you'll find Chevrolet's MyLink infotainment system with a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, Bluetooth streaming, and a USB input. The LT also adds cruise control, a rearview backup camera, heated front seats, and remote keyless entry — features that genuinely improve the daily ownership experience.

The interior cabin is well-organized and surprisingly spacious for a compact sedan. Rear-seat legroom was significantly improved in the 2016 redesign, making this a car that actually works for four adults on longer trips. The trunk offers a respectable 14.8 cubic feet of cargo space, competitive for the class.

Chevrolet Cruze Reliability and Ownership

The 2017 Chevrolet Cruze earned solid reliability scores from owners and third-party reviewers alike. Consumer Reports rated this generation favorably, and J.D. Power gave it above-average marks for initial quality. The 1.4L turbocharged engine has a known track record of durability when regular oil changes are maintained — which is the single most important factor at this mileage. Common owner feedback centers on the smooth ride quality, quiet cabin, and low fuel costs.

Things to keep in mind at higher mileage: it's worth asking about recent maintenance history, particularly timing chain service and any coolant-related items. These are routine concerns on any high-mileage vehicle and not unique to the Cruze. Overall, buyers who perform basic due diligence typically find the 2017 Cruze to be a dependable daily driver well past the 100K mark.
