A Cruze by Any Other Name


Can you identify these two cars? Of course you can. One is a Chevy, the other is not. But which is which? My design point is that Audi has influenced Mazda 3 (above left) as well as the Cruze (middle). When you take the front end out of the equation, they are strikingly similar. Note the crease along the bottom of the doors. The short deck lid. The only obvious roof line difference is the C-pillar. Chevy uses a black inlay at the kink behind the rear door. The far right image shows it photoshopped out. A Cruzda 3?
