We have two Chevrolet Cruze turbodiesels. They are averaging just about 40mpg in mixed highway and city use. Unlike our gas Cruze the trip computer is pessimistic. The Truth About EPA City / Highway MPG Estimates - Feature - Car and Driver

Not many of those TD Cruzes out there. All the reviews I have seen on them they got great fuel economy and are real peppy. I have only seen one on the road out where I live. Chevy did not do a good job of advertising them.

They were not offered for sale in 2015, just 2014. Apparently GM wanted to be cautious due to the disastrous 80's diesel.

They will be reintroduced in the new 2016 Cruze and some are suggesting the CA and USA models will be available with standard shift.

In the meantime Ford is eating Chevy's lunch in the work van market because GM doesn't have a high-roof model.
