Chevy Cruze Vs Ford Focus Vs Honda Civic: Fuel Efficiency

We know that many drivers in our area commute into the nearby cities for work, which makes the sedan an ideal option. Not only is this kind of car maneuverable and easy to park on a city street, but it's also rather fuel-efficient.

The Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, and Honda Civic follow this pattern, all offering a maximum highway fuel economy of 40 MPG or higher. Their maximum highway fuel efficiencies are as follows:

  • Chevy Cruze EPA-Estimated Fuel Economy: 52 MPG highway1
  • Ford Focus EPA-Estimated Fuel Economy: 40 MPG highway
  • Honda Civic EPA-Estimated Fuel Economy: 42 MPG highway

While all three sedans make a smooth-shifting automatic transmission available, they're all actually most efficient when commuting long distances with the standard 6-speed manual transmission.

Overall, it appears that drivers in the Chevy Cruze may have to stop to fill up less frequently than drivers in the Focus or Civic.

 

Cruze Vs Focus Vs Civic Safety Technology

Whether you're commuting to work or hitting the slopes on the weekend, you'll have several smart safety features to help you reach your destination with confidence.

The Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, and Honda Civic all make a suite of safety technologies available that includes features like a blind spot monitor. This system issues an alert whenever other cars enter your side or rear blind spots. This way, you can know when the coast is clear to merge.

The Chevy Cruze takes this a step further by offering the available Lane Change Alert feature. When you activate your turn signal, this feature will let you know another car is approaching too quickly in your intended lane to allow for safe merging.

The Focus and Civic don't offer a similar feature; however, all three sedans have an available forward collision mitigation system that keeps a lookout for potential hazards on the road ahead. These systems issue an alert and charge the brakes if they sense a forward collision may be imminent.

Again, the Chevy Cruze kicks this feature up a notch by offering an available Following Distance Indicator. This system aims to prevent the need for emergency braking by issuing a warning if you're following too closely to the car ahead of you to allow for safe braking. This is also a feature that's not available in the Focus or Civic.
