2011 Chevrolet Cruze Eco – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/a><\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nGeneral Motors<\/a> may be giving the Chevrolet Cruze<\/a> a once-over before the car debuts here in the States. According to Paul Tan, the sedan is getting a few upgrades ahead of American consumers getting a crack at the company’s new compact fighter. The majority of the changes seem to be geared towards making the car quieter, and include a new acoustic laminated windshield and extra sound deadening in the doors. GM has also cranked the total air bag count up to 10 to improve its safety rating.<\/p>\n

While the thought of additional weight in a car with just 138 horsepower slows our pulse, there is some good news: The General may be ditching the torsion bar rear suspension in the global Cruze<\/a> in favor of a Z-link set up, meaning there may be some hope for the four-door when it comes to the twisties. <\/p>\n
